“Being on a panel enriches the conference experience, makes the whole event more personal and facilitates higher engagement with fellow delegates and the ACT. Whatever the event I encourage my team to take an active role as it is a better learning experience than being passive. A panel is a generally safe environment to build confidence in presenting in front of a large audience. Important to have a pre-conference discussion with fellow panellists and coordinate responses, get to know each other a little and have some responses prepared.”
Andrew Binnie, Deputy Group Treasurer, Vodafone
Panellist at the ACT Annual Conference 2017

Panel discussion
Discussions bring together the perspectives of three to four treasury experts into a cohesive conversation, led by a moderator. These sessions engage delegates – inviting them to think and debate on the multiple viewpoints presented and participate in Q&A
