We’re thrilled our Private Practice Conference was ‘highly commended’ at the Memcom Excellence Awards 2023.

The conference scooped the honour in the best virtual/hybrid event category.

Congratulations to all our events team involved in running such a successful conference, and to the contributors and speakers who played their part in making it a great day for delegates.

Held in September 2022, it was titled Beyond the room – finding your inner entrepreneur and was attended by nearly 900 of our members, in person in London and online.

The conference brought together a range of practitioners who shared their experience and knowledge of building and developing a private practice.

Rebecca Gibson, our Member Resources Manager, said: "We’re delighted to receive this award and have industry recognition for our hybrid private practice conference.

"This award is the culmination of the dedication and commitment of my team to supporting our members in accessing our events digitally both in-person and online.

"We’re devoted to delivering a professional and inclusive service to all our members engaging with our events and I’m so proud this has been recognised with a prestigious award from Memcom, voted by experts across the membership sector."
