Policy Live returned in 2025 with a fresh line-up of speakers, sessions and ideas.

The challenges facing the UK are well rehearsed: low growth, struggling public services and squeezed budgets both for households and for governments. We need bold ideas that can drive the social change necessary - and we need to do policy differently.

Policy Live explored how we can do that. We heard international experts reflect on their experience of delivering complex policy programmes; explored new methods of delivery; engaged with fresh evidence from leading experts; and learnt new ways of doing policy differently that can be applied to your work.
