Networking

As the leading schools’ development conference in Europe, the IDPE annual conference brings together individuals with a wealth of experience from across the schools’ development and wider fundraising sectors.

We recognise that many development professionals are working on their own or in small development teams, therefore the opportunity to network with peers and share best practice and experience is fundamental to the conference experience.

Throughout the conference we offer a range of opportunities to engage with colleagues from across the IDPE community and to develop your network of support, both for your own professional development and personal well-being.

'Networking and light bulb moments that inspire us.’

‘The opportunity to chat with industry colleagues is invaluable.’

‘Speaking with colleagues in the industry, realising we deal with the same obstacles, and can learn from others how they have dealt with similar circumstances.’
