We are looking forward to welcoming the class of 2023 to our flagship academic event of the year.
This year’s Chevening Conference is particularly special, as we bring together our 40th cohort of scholars.
We are delighted to be delivering this event in partnership with the University of Glasgow and would like to extend a special thank you to the team there for being such generous hosts.
Over the past 40 years, the Chevening programme has supported more than 57,000 exceptional individuals to make a global impact. Across fields as diverse as law, education, politics, and technology, the global Chevening Alumni community have gone on to make an extraordinary contribution to the world as we know it, so we couldn't think of a better theme for this year's conference than ‘Building for the future’.
We are excited to bring together some of the most brilliant and inquisitive minds within our network to share their research and ideas on the topic.
There will be guest speakers, scholar presentations, and plenty of networking opportunities in what promises to be a truly spectacular day.
I encourage you to come prepared with questions and be ready to challenge yourself with new ways of thinking.
I also encourage you to embrace the opportunity to get to know your fellow scholars. Hopefully you will forge meaningful connections that you can rely upon for many years to come.
Andrew Chadwick, Head of Chevening Secretariat
