Annual Conference

Our 2020 Annual Conference is entitled IR 2020: The Future is Now

As we celebrate 40 years of the IR Society we will recap on the recent major themes and topics that have shaped IR into an increasingly strategic role and delve into the current and emerging issues that continue to challenge and evolve our profession. Alongside our keynote address, topics will include ESG and stewardship, AI and other new technology, the changing shape of capital markets, and IR in a post-MiFID II world. 

Coronavirus Update

24 March 2020

The health and well-being of both our staff and valued members is paramount. In the interests of everyone’s well-being we feel it is prudent to consider a range of options, including potentially postponing the conference until the Autumn.

In the coming weeks we will be exploring a number of options including running the conference as a live event in the Autumn or running the conference as a virtual event, once again in the Autumn.

We are keen to avoid as much uncertainty as possible. We are working closely with local public health authorities and all official updates from the government and we will keep you up to date on what is happening going forward. We hope to be in a position to make a firm announcement on this shortly.

As ever, we appreciate your continuing support and wish you well during these uncertain times.
