NIPA's second in the new series of regular, short lunchtime talks to explore all aspects of the NSIP regime – from the latest developments to more personal stories – is a presentation with Q&A by Tom Hacker on Engagement as a Strategic Lever in Infrastructure Planning. We hope you will join us and participate.
Tom is the Head of Stakeholder Engagement and Comms at Ardent and has led on applications and Stakeholder Engagement across multiple NSIP projects.
This session explores how meaningful engagement, when embedded early and strategically, can unlock delivery, reduce risk, and shape a more positive narrative around major infrastructure projects—particularly as policy and practice continue to evolve.
This is an online event open to NIPA members only, and all are welcome – particularly Early Years Practitioners and those working in the engagement sector.
Please note this session has been rescheduled from Tuesday 11 November to Tuesday 18 November, 12.30–13.10.
