Whether you’ve been using WISEflow for many years, working on the administration side or being driven by pedagogical needs, in the early stages of your digital transition – or even at an institution with no digital assessment provisions in place - WISEcon offers something for everyone.

Location

The Barbican Centre

Silk Street
London, England, EC2Y 8DS

The Barbican is an arts, learning, and conference centre in the heart of the City of London. Opened in 1982, the Barbican is a unique and audacious building, recognised globally as an architectural icon. As well as theatres, galleries, concert halls and cinemas, it’s home to a large conservatory with over 1,500 species of plants and trees, a library, conference facilities, public and community spaces, restaurants, bars, and a picturesque lakeside oasis.

 

Gala Dinner Venue

WISEcon25 will feature a show-stopping Gala Dinner on the evening of Tuesday 23 September.

The venue? None other than the Inner Temple.

The Honourable Society of the Inner Temple, commonly known as the Inner Temple, is one of the four Inns of Court in the UK and is a professional association for barristers and judges. To be called to the Bar and practise as a barrister in England and Wales, a person must belong to one of these Inns.

The Parliament Chamber is adorned with oak-panelled walls and Grinling Gibbons carving around the fireplace, providing an elegant ambiance.

The Hall, where the dinner will be served, is adorned with grand chandeliers, heraldic shields, and silver accents, providing a stunning and deeply historical backdrop.

With origins dating back to the 12th Century, the Inner Temple is of near unrivalled historical and cultural significance. We cannot wait to offer attendees the chance to enjoy amazing food, drinks and company at this landmark.

WISEcon25 early-bird and standard tickets will include Gala Dinner participation as a baseline. If you do not wish to attend the dinner, please reach out to us at wisecon@uniwise.dk to let us know.
