I think this event is unique because of a real focus on local government. Local Government is huge, it spends a lot of money, but they also have some quite specific challenges and markets.

The thing I’ve enjoyed most about LGPE so far is the panel debates. It was interesting to be able to talk to lots of different people.

Events like LGPE are important for NEPO as it gives us the opportunity to network with the public sector counterparts that we work with. It also gives us the opportunity to really engage with our strategic partners that are in attendance as well.

The speakers have been really good,but just the opportunity to be able to have a wander around, speak to suppliers, speak to contracting authorities and exciting and hope for potential customers has been really worthwhile.

This is an opportunity to meet the supply side, but also the buyer side, the local authorities. And as a result, it creates an opportunity for engagement, good dialogue and some fantastic speakers creating more thought leadership.
