Synopsis
The 13th annual edition of City Week will be held in-person at Guildhall, London, and also streamed live on our media channels, over three days between 24-26 April 2023. As in previous years, CW2023 is being organised in partnership with the UK Government, the City of London Corporation, TheCityUK, UK Finance and leading City institutions.
