Join Demos at the Conservative party conference 2023
At this year’s Conservative party conference we’ll once again be holding a range of panel events with expert speakers, including politicians, businesses, civil society leaders, journalists and other experts that bring fresh ideas and perspectives.
We’ll be discussing the future of business, reforming public services, tackling homelessness and helping older people to stay in work.
The core of what makes a party conference special is the participation and engagement of attendees, the questions and contributions from the floor and the conversations that start in response to the discussions at events. So do make sure you come along and give your views on the big issues facing the country.
