Discussion Groups

One of the sessions during the conference will see delegates split into smaller groups, with a choice of 12 distinct breakout sessions running in parallel. Your attendees are welcome to attend this session if they would like to. Delegates will participate in one discussion group, enabling them to explore a topic most relevant to them in a more focused setting.

When registering, please select both a first and second choice session for each attendee to help us manage group sizes and ensure everyone can participate in a session of interest.  Your assigned group will be displayed on the day in the LawNet Conference App. There is also an option to let us know if you don't intend attending a discussion group.
