The spiked summit: a one-day conference in London
SATURDAY 27 JUNE
Emmanuel Centre, Westminster

In these times, when every day seems to throw up new political challenges and cultural conflicts, there’s no better place to turn for incisive analysis than spiked.

Whether punchy commentary, insightful essays or a growing roster of podcasts and videos, spiked always offers intelligent, though-provoking commentary on the important issues of the day. And of course, spiked writers and podcasts have long been mainstays of Battle of Ideas festival.

Now the spiked summit – a one-day conference taking place at the Emmanuel Centre in Westminster on Saturday 27 June – gives you the chance to hear from leading writers and thinkers – including Konstantin Kisin, Lionel Shriver, Katharine Birbalsingh, Toby Young, Allison Pearson, Brendan O’Neill and Tom Slater.

What’s more, all Academy of Ideas associate members and paid Substack subscribers can get a discount of 20% off the full price of a spiked summit ticket.

If you are not yet a paid subscriber, there’s no better time to rectify that (see below).

As well as this offer, you’ll receive discounted tickets to Battle of Ideas festival and many of our other events, subscriber-only posts (including behind-the-scenes commentary), the chance to attend quarterly online meetings with the Academy of Ideas team and paper copies of our renowned Letters on Liberty pamphlets.
