Some of the specialist finance industry’s leading names will take to the Conference Theatre, kindly sponsored by TAB, at the FP Show 2026, which will be held at Olympia London on 6th November.
FP Show 2026 is once again collaborating with Knowledge Bank to bring its popular Live Criteria Clinics to the show, with Knowledge Bank founder and CEO Nicola Firth returning to moderate the interactive sessions throughout the day.
The programme will cover BTL, commercial mortgages, development finance and bridging, with two dedicated bridging panels returning following strong demand from delegates.
Rather than traditional presentations, the sessions will give brokers the opportunity to put questions directly to panellists, discuss live cases, and take part in interactive polls to gauge market sentiment.
Attendance is complimentary, although delegates are required to register on the FP Show website in advance.
