The NICC Open Forum is an annual event which currently takes place at One Great George Street, Westminster, London, SW1P 3AA. This event is open to both NICC members and non-members.
This year, the Open Forum will be held on the 13th November 2024.
The Open Forum is a full day of technical presentations, reports on Task Group activities, question and answer sessions. It also provides the opportunity, within the relaxed environment of the refreshment breaks, to meet and interact with other NICC members and non-members; allowing established contacts to be strengthened and new ones to be developed.
Additionally, as many members are gathered for the Open Forum, the NICC Standards Ltd. AGM is usually scheduled into the programme of the day.
