After a busy four weeks on the road at the Liberal Democrat, Labour, Conservative and Scottish National Party political party conferences, where Prospect hosted a number of discussions on the fringe, we’re delighted to share a collection of articles covering the main ideas resulting from our events.

This year, Prospect’s events programme addressed a variety of topics including: banking, regional devolution, Brexit, infrastructure, transport, and financial inclusion. It also saw the launch of our Data as Infrastructure report.
