Club Liverpool Ambassador Programme is a network of Liverpool academics and professionals who volunteer their time to help bid for conferences to bring economic growth and value to Liverpool City Region. If you could consider bidding to bring a conference to support the recovery, then we are here to help. We offer free advice and support to bid for and host events in the city, as well as providing the opportunity to network with other influential people in the same position. This support is available whether you are bringing a meeting for 50 or a conference for 5,000 people.
