Two years on from the UK’s first lockdown, the hospitality sector remains at the forefront of major battles when one considers the global uncertainty the pandemic continues to generate, the labour and supply fallouts from Brexit – and, of course, the urgent action needed by all to tackle climate change, as advanced at COP26.

Throughout 2021, the hospitality sector has showcased its ability to be resilient, recalibrate, and pivot rapidly to adapt to the enormous demands and changes brought about to manage COVID-19 and Brexit.

As we look to the future and set against this backdrop, our expert panel of speakers will explore these issues further, share key learnings and consider tangible ways to futureproof the hospitality sector.

Chair: Jean Devlin, Partner, Control Risks

Kate Nicholls OBE, Chief Executive, UKHospitality
