One week to go for the digital Sustainability in Licensing Conference

Taking place this time next week, tickets are now available for The Sustainability in Licensing Conference 2020 (SILC), which will be held digitally and running across two days – Tuesday 24 and Wednesday 25 November, 2020.

An essential for any business which deals with licensed product, SILC is set to deliver a full agenda of keynote speeches, panel discussions and exclusive research findings, designed to help the licensing community drive sustainable growth within their business and the industry as a whole.

Online booking for tickets is now live.

“While all our personal and business lives continue to be disrupted by Covid-19, taking SILC onto a digital platform means that we can all continue on our sustainable journey,” commented SILC curator and conference director, Helena Mansell-Stopher.

“The commitment we have engendered in SILC, as evidenced by the fabulous line-up of speakers and official supporters, highlights the collective drive for change on the sustainable front while also being aware of the commercial realities.”
