Tim Whiteman, IPAF managing director, said: “While we are sorry that Andy will not be able to join us this year, we are delighted that Roger Brown and Ward Bushnell have agreed to step in at the last moment.”

Studdert said: “I very much regret that some new commitments make it impossible for me to address the IPAF Summit this year. I commend the event to everybody in this business and wish IPAF a successful event.”
