"Pathways to Success - Realising Ambitions in an Increasingly Uncertain World"

The Sector is thrilled to launch its inaugural ECEC Owners and Landlords Forum, a specialist event for business owners and landlords seeking an opportunity to engage with leading subject matter experts and high profile leaders in the early childhood education and care (ECEC) policy, real estate and ownership space.“It is important to understand that the ECEC Owners and Landlords Forum is not just another ‘mega conference’ designed and priced to benefit its hosts and exhibitors,” Jason Roberts, Founder of The Sector said.“We have worked hard to identify the issues and aspirations that really matter to owners and landlords right now and intentionally selected panelists and moderators, who not only have clear track records and influence in the sector, but also are able to communicate their knowledge and experience effectively to the delegates who will attend to listen, learn and engage.”“In addition, we have capped attendance at under 350 to maintain intimacy, priced early bird tickets below $300 to support accessibility and catered for extended Q&A sessions to maximise delegate interactions with our experts and ensure real value is received.”“We are confident that this valuable new event format will be a huge success and look forward to welcoming delegates on the day.”-------------------------------------------------------
