TBA announces new conference for bloodstock industry participants in June

The Thoroughbred Breeders' Association has announced that a new conference for bloodstock industry participants will take place in Newmarket on Tuesday, June 27 next year.

The one-day event, which will be hosted by racing broadcaster Lydia Hislop, will feature interactive panel sessions, talks and presentations with leading industry experts on a number of topics.

They include business operations, race programming, sales, innovation and technology, accessible ownership and equine health.

TBA chief executive Claire Sheppard said: “We are really excited to deliver this new event in 2023. The TBA is continually looking at ways in which we can improve our services to the industry and we hope the bloodstock conference will provide a great opportunity for people to get together, hear from leading experts and generate and share ideas on the future of the sector.”

Tickets for the conference will be free for TBA members and TBA Access subscribers, while non-members can sign up to TBA Access for £40 today to take advantage of the conference launch offer (the offer ends on December 30). Information on non-member ticket options will be released in early 2023.

More information on the event’s speakers and schedule will be released shortly.
