At Trade Tech 2009, there was a request from attendees to run an interim Thought Leadership Workshop before Trade Tech 2010 and you are invited to this. An afternoon of talks and round-table discussions will focus on some of the key themes and issues previously identified. This will be followed by a drinks reception, sponsored by Pipeline Financial Group.

The workshop will be attended by thought leaders from industry, academia and research funding agencies. It will dig deeper into themes and industry challenges developed previously, focusing on a small number of key issues in depth. The aim is to turn thought into action, to identify practical next steps and potential partnerships from industry and academia.

The workshop will be held at Holborn Bars, 138 -142 Holborn, London, EC1N 2NQ, on 20 January 2010 at 2pm.

To cover costs, there will be a registration fee of £95 for industry and £20 for academics. Registration is organised by the Centre for Financial Computing: Academics click here to register and industry click here to register.

For more information, please visit the workshop website. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to email Lucinda Kingswood or telephone her on 07876458555.

The organisers of the workshop hope you will be able to join them in what promises to be an informative event.
