The themed webinars have been suspended in 2023 because of the Centenary events.

Please keep sending your suggestions, as we will continue it for 2024

 

Across the year, the SEB hosts a free virtual lecturer series themed around significant dates or holidays in the calendar. The aim is to have short 30-minute talks (followed by audience Q&A) that have a broad interest and will be engaging for all members and interested parties, no matter their background or career level.

If you have would like to present or know someone who would please use the form below to propose a talk. If you already have a good idea of the format for the talk, then please include the speakers name, title for the talk, and a short abstract or key take-away points, and available dates. If you have a more general idea for a talk, topic or would just like to know more, then we would also love to hear from you.
