CPA Conference to focus on shaping the future of the hire sector

THE Construction Plant-hire Association (CPA) has announced the CPA Conference 2024 will be hosted on Thursday November 7 with the theme of ‘Shaping the Future: Insights for the Plant-hire Sector’.

The one-day event will be held at the Heart of England Conference and Events Centre in Fillongley near Coventry. The host will once again be former TV presenter, newsreader and journalist Merryn Myatt, who will be joined this year by co-host Peter Haddock, who is well known throughout the plant hire industry as a content, social media and PR specialist, journalist and vlogger.

The conference will bring together a number of panel speakers discussing how organisations can shape the future of the sector. Merryn Myatt and Peter Haddock will lead a number of interactive debates discussing topics such as innovation, decarbonisation, digitalisation, skills, business growth, succession planning, and mental health and wellbeing.

CPA president Brian Jones said, “This will be the ninth CPA Conference we have held and we felt this year’s event should address the core issues that are of importance right now to CPA members and the wider construction industry. Last year’s CPA Conference theme was ‘Facing the Challenges’ and the CPA Conference 2024 has moved on to discussing how attendees can help shape the future of the industry and provide solutions. It’s gearing up to be a great event and it’s excellent that there has been so much interest in it already.”
