IFT In Conversation with: Sir Peter Hendy in Association with PwC

Written by Tyler Duffield on September 15, 2021

We are delighted to announce the return of our physical events starting from September. In conjunction with this we have organised a relaunch event in association with PwC which will be headlined by Sir Peter Hendy. The event will take place at PwCs embankment office and will mark the first opportunity to network with speakers and peers since the beginning of the Coronavirus Pandemic.

Sir Peter Hendy started his transport career in 1975 as a London Transport graduate trainee. In 2006, Sir Peter was made CBE and was later Knighted in the 2013 New Year’s Honours List. In July 2015, he became the Chair of Network Rail, and has been the Chair of the London Legacy Development Corporation since July 2017. Sir Peter was previously Commissioner of Transport for London for nearly 10 years and he is also a trustee of London’s Transport Museum and the Science Museum Group.

Sir Peter will be reflecting on his career from his time as the Commissioner of Transport through to his current role as the Chair of Network Rail. He will also be discussing his thoughts on the future of transport and the impact this may have on a wider scale.

Rob Lewis (lead of Mid-Market Business Restructuring Services – PwC) will  open the evening and give attendees an insight to his thoughts on the market.

Followed by an update on infrastructure restructurings within the transport sector by Isabelle Gross (Partner – PwC). The presentations will then conclude with a Q&A session chaired by our CEO Milly Camley.

Following this there will be refreshments and networking opportunities with other delegates as well as our speakers. The event has limited capacity so we urge you to book as soon as possible by contacting tduffield@the-ift.com.
