PPL2009 SOCIAL EVENTS

It's not all hard work at the conference, as well as networking opportunities during the day we also have a conference dinner on the first evening preceded by a canal boat tour of Amsterdam's historic centre. These events are included in your conference fees.

Lunch with a PPL2009 keynote speaker

Our 4 keynote speakers have kindly offered to give participants a chance to meet and speak with them during one lunchtime. This gives you a chance to discuss their keynote further and also to find out in depth how their experiences map to your challenges and opportunities.

Please email to arrange lunch with one of our keynote speakers.

Canal boat Tour

What better way to see the sights of Amsterdam than with a tour by canal boat? We'll see the main sights and will arrive at our restaurant in style.
