As Chair of the UK’s National Committee, Toby will lead the group in its goal to support a programme of activities that represent the UK on an international stage. This includes organising UK National Committee workshops, identifying themes, paper authors and chairpersons for congress sessions, and supporting WPC UK Young Professionals.
The WPC also works closely with other organisations and institutes in the goal of progressing an open, collaborative, and transparent industry space. This runs through the formation of the UK committee, too, with members from a variety of commercial, governmental, and academic organisations.
