This one day conference will be a chance for Senior Managers to discuss important issues that are shaping the Industry.

The premium rate industry has shown decline over the past few years with consumers opting for free or other payment methods to enjoy their digital content and services, while the EU, while opening up the opportunity for tickets has clamped down heavily on transaction values and maximum monthly amounts. Apple is making big inroads into mobile payments in the US through a very aggressive land grab.

So how do you, as a senior manager in your organisation shape your future strategy to grow your business? And if the environment is affecting your business, can you shape the environment instead?

This one day Senior Manager conference, based in Cobham, Surrey will give you a chance to discuss the important issues and opportunities that are shaping your business, develop an industry roadmap for development and brainstorm strategies that will help you define your business going forward.

The day will be followed by an evening meal and an opportunity to relax and network with other conference delegates. For delegates who wish to stay overnight, accommodation is available at the venue and is a stones throw away from the Silvermere Golf Course which is an ideal location for client networking the next day.
