The Richmond IT Directors' Forum - Spring

Fairmont Windsor Park, Windsor, United Kingdom

15-16 May 2025

 

Having run for over 30 years, The Richmond IT Directors’ Forum is the industry’s premier event, bringing together the top technology decision-makers, service providers and expert speakers.

The aim of our forum is to put you in touch with your peer group, create lasting business relationships and provide high profile industry speakers within our CPD accredited conference programme - all within the luxurious surroundings of the 5* Fairmont Windsor Park Hotel.

Our proven (and now much copied) format of pre-scheduled 1:1 meetings and conference sessions enables each attendee to build a bespoke 2 day schedule to fit their specific needs.

In this era of remote working and online meetings, we believe that in-person interactions are still the most effective way of forming collaborative business connections and crafting an IT strategy for your organisation that drives success.

The Richmond IT Directors’ Forum is part of our global portfolio of events for the IT industry. You can see details of all events here.

Extremely valuable, the Richmond event always stands above the rest for me. So well organised, the right mix of vendor engagement, networking, great guest speakers and self development. I love the variety of vendors that are present at the event, many of which I would not have the opportunity to speak to normally.

— Head of Information Security, Whitbread
It has been a great two days of presentations, vendor/MSP meetings, fantastic hospitality and the opportunity to network and collaborate with IT and Information Security peers.
