The FISITA Expert Group initiative enables international expert peer groups to establish and progress agendas of work aligned with the real-world challenges and opportunities within their area of expertise.
Each Expert Group has been prioritised by FISITA member leaders via the International Strategy Group, ensuring a pipeline of high-value groups, each delivering peer group engagement, valuable dialogue, and tangible outcomes in the pre-competitive space.
