This conference explored the future of professional practice in the 21st century. This includes professional practice in large firms, the tension between high remuneration and professional ethics, globalisation and professional norms, models of regulation and most transformative of all, digitisation of professional services. The researchers have taken topics central to the understanding of modern professional practice and combined academic research with a strong practical emphasis.
