Why Attend

The LGC Summit is a critical and prestigious event in the calendar for council chief executives and their senior officers. The 24th iteration of the event takes place under the Chatham House Rule, the Summit provides a safe and collaborative space for local government leaders to get together, debate key issues and share innovative thinking around tackling those challenges.

Three key reasons to attend the LGC Summit:

  1. Connect with your peers across the sector, build relationships and share insights and experiences with others who are facing similar challenges.
  2. Be inspired by thought-provoking speakers, learn about new and innovative strategies, and contribute to the discussion on the most pressing issues of the day.
  3. Take time to reflect, collaborate and deliberate over the future of the sector in a safe space under Chatham House Rule.
