Registration is now open for the CSSA Economic Outlook 2026!

The Autumn Budget lands on 28 October. One week later, we're bringing the sector together in the City to work through what it means for labour costs, wage floors, interest rates and investment in 2027.

Roger Martin-Fagg returns for the main keynote, and Tabitha Gafencu from Tesco shares how the business rolled out autonomous floor cleaning across 600 Express stores this summer. After that, the room splits into three peer-led roundtables, and you choose which one to join.

A big thank you to for sponsoring this year's event.

Places are limited, so book early to secure yours.
