Newton at the LGA Annual Conference 2024
“The LGA Conference is a highlight of the local government calendar, and we’re delighted to be back for another year as part of the Innovation Zone, which provides a space for local authorities to collaborate and share ideas.
We’re proud that our partnerships with local authorities to deliver strategic improvement and innovation are resulting in improved resident outcomes and service quality, and significant financial benefit. Over the next three days, a range of our clients will be leading sessions sharing some of their examples.
For the first time this year, we will also be joined by our partners at Xantura, who specialise in using artificial intelligence and advanced analytics to enable public services to better understand and support the needs of residents and communities. While Xantura is becoming integral to how we deliver for all our client partnerships, they have also invited the London Borough of Barking and Dagenham to lead a session to demonstrate the impact they have had together.
We look forward to welcoming you for a coffee and providing a space to catch up with colleagues.”
