What can I expect when I attend your events?

Our events typically last between one hour and one hour fifteen minutes, the speaker or speakers will present for the first half of the event before we open the debate up to you in the audience. You are welcome to ask a question or make a comment but please try to be concise and to the point so other members of the audience can get involved in the discussion too.

All of our events are audio and video recorded and are made available on our website to watch and listen to again.
