This year for the first time we are holding the conference in the beautiful surrounds of Dublin, Ireland, another first for this year is that the conference is to be held across two days. You can find the full programme below. We are lucky to have David Domoney chairing and hosting the Conference and Gala Dinner this year.
In November 2016 we welcomed over 100 professional horticulturists to join us as we listened to the likes of Philip Pearson from APS Group and Anthony Snell of AJ & CI Snell to name just a few of our speakers.
Last year of conference left delegates and speakers with new professional contacts and a wealth of new knowledge and ideas. But don’t just take our word for it…
Well-organised and professional conference! – Anthony Snell, AJ & CI Snell
I am delighted to be associated with such a well-organised and thought-provoking event. Our profession is rightly very proud of our conference, well done to everyone involved – Phil Pearson APS Group
However, that’s not to say we haven’t made some improvements. We’ve taken on board the comments from our attendees and we’re confident this year’s conference will be better than ever, especially as it’s to be held in the beautiful city of Dublin for the very first time. Find out more below!
