The Future of UK Postal Services

Since the liberalisation of the UK market in 2006, the postal industry has undergone considerable transformation. Operators must formulate strategies that ensure they stay ahead of the competition, whilst regulators face tough challenges to ensure the market functions effectively and the USO is maintained.

The event attracts over 120 senior-level attendees from postal operators, regulators, government, professional services and trade associations, to debate the way ahead for the sector. The conference also boasts an outstanding speaker line-up year on year, featuring the major players of the UK postal industry.
