They're back! It's almost exactly one year since the FCA came to Bristol and time for an update on what's happened and is about to happen.
About this Event

Following our previous roundtable with the Financial Conduct Authority, described as “a breath of fresh air”, we’re bringing the conversation back to the South West for a timely update.

Over the past year, the FCA has continued to evolve its approach to innovation, with expanded support for firms across the lifecycle, from early-stage ideas through to scaling and market entry.

This session will cut through the noise to focus on what has actually changed including developments in areas such as AI, innovation pathways, sandbox access, and the broader regulatory environment and what that means in practice for firms today.

Expect a candid, interactive discussion with the FCA and the community, with plenty of opportunity to ask questions, challenge thinking, and shape future engagement.

If you joined us last time, this is the next chapter. If you didn’t, this is your chance to be part of a conversation that is helping redefine how regulators and industry work together.

Doors open at 9.30 for networking, coffee and a 10am start.
