Join us for one day in June at the beautiful Warwick University campus to hear from the brightest minds and from people who make policies using behavioural science
Hosted by The Warwick Behavioural Insights Team, you can expect some of the leading thinkers and practitioners in behavioural science, marketing, advertising and more. You’ll be joined by students and academics with a shared interest in behavioural economics, psychology, neuroeconomics and choice theory.
