Centenary Conference Speakers

Take a look below and see the wonderful line-up of speakers that we've put together to mark our Centenary year in style. From City Mayors to leading international co-operative figures, we've assembled a line-up that captures the global reach of the co-operative movement.

Join us from the 26-28 November as we explore what makes co-operative education unique and examine how it can offer radical solutions to some of societies biggest problems.

We'll be adding more speakers over the coming weeks too, so keep checking back!
