For a limited time only, British Marine members can take advantage of an exclusive member only early bird ticket offer to the 2024 British Marine National Conference, taking place at the International Convention Centre Wales, 27 – 28 February 2024.

Members who book their tickets before 7 July 2023 will be able to take advantage of the early bird ticket price of just £99 +VAT (Full member price £150+VAT / full non-member price £249+VAT)*.

Focused on the theme of ‘Supporting Businesses in a Changing World’, British Marine is bringing together a stellar line-up of experts from the marine sector and other successful businesses to deliver a highly valuable programme that will be informative, thought provoking and engaging.

Headlining the conference will be the BAFTA nominated foreign correspondent, Clive Myrie, who will provide a global view on supporting businesses in a changing world, alongside a diverse range of expert-led sessions and panel discussions focused on three core areas: Strategy, Structure and People.

“Plans are well underway for the 2024 conference and we are delighted to welcome Clive Myrie as our keynote speaker and Zoe Lyons as our evening host”, commented Lesley Robinson, CEO, British Marine. “The conference is set to deliver a highly valuable programme, with speakers providing unique insights on the key issues, alongside the opportunity to spend time with industry peers and share personal experiences and ideas on best-practice.”

Just some of the topics that will be explored during the conference include staff recruitment and retention, adapting to supply chain challenges, integrating AI into your marketing plans and how to start assessing your businesses environmental impacts, in preparation for new environmental targets.  The full speaker line-up and conference agenda will be revealed in the coming weeks.

Alongside the diverse range of expert-led sessions and networking opportunities, as part of the ticket price, delegates will also enjoy a buffet dinner on Tuesday evening, where we will be joined by sharp witted comedian, Zoe Lyons who will reveal the winners of the British Marine and Boating Business Awards, plus morning refreshments the following day.
