IPSEF Asia 2018

We were delighted that IPSEF Asia moved to China in April 2018 and expanded to four days. Comprising of two days of school visits and two days of conference and exhibition.

The event was a huge success and a unique opportunity for schools and suppliers worldwide to explore and learn about the emerging Chinese market in detail through high level presentations and school visits to both Chinese and international schools.

Organised in partnership with Dipont Education and explore CRS, IPSEF Asia as a unique event brought together Chinese schools and investors to engage with world class operators and suppliers.

An important feature of IPSEF was the table top exhibits which enabled local operators to access and meet world class suppliers in areas as diverse as ICT, recruitment, assessment, school design, CPD, consultancy and professional services, publishing and school resources.
