Save the dates - 17 and 18 May 2018

As 2017 draws to a close, make sure to add 17 and 18 May to your diary for next year - you don't want to miss these must-attend events for communications practitioners.

Our flagship event, the CIPR International Maggie Nally Memorial lecture, will take place in the evening on Thursday 17 May. This annual event is held in memory of Margaret Nally, the first female President of the Chartered Institute of Public Relations in 1976.

Following last year's success, the Global PRactice conference 2018 will follow on Friday 18 May. This provides our overseas members with a splendid opportunity to combine their attendance with a long weekend in London. The all-day event will feature an array of high profile speakers, all sharing their expertise within different aspects of international communications.

We are always looking for new and engaging speakers for our events, so do get in touch if you have insight to share and are interested in participating at next year's Global PRactice conference. And of course, if you know of any organisation which might like to sponsor the event, so much the better!

As we turn our minds to 2018, the year of the CIPR’s 70th anniversary, don't forget to sign up to our newsletter and stay in touch on Twitter, LinkedIn, or Facebook to make sure you're the first to know when further event details are revealed.
