LCL eXplore 2020

“Data driven supply chains”

Explore Conference – 10 March – Postponed

With great regret, due to the current climate surrounding COVID 19, a decision has been taken to postpone the planned conference on 10 March. Whilst the University is not currently recommending the cancellation of events, after review, we feel the situation does not support a successful conference environment, due to travel restrictions and health concerns of both speakers and guests.

Therefore a decision has been taken to postpone. We hope to welcome guests to an extended LCL Research Fest in June, if the current climate improves – more information to follow later. Thank you for your understanding.

With best wishes and apologies from the LCL Team.
