Regulated, not restricted: innovation and risk

30 Apr 2026
The Outstanding Society Learning Lounge
Regulation, Quality & Compliance

Join us to discuss balancing innovation with safety including the voice of the provider and CQC's role in supporting innovation rather than acting as a barrier.  This session explores how leaders can create cultures where creativity thrives, people feel safe to try new approaches, and regulatory expectations are met without stifling progress.
