Spring Symposium Event Handbook – 2026
The theme for the PCE Spring Symposium — Pension Communication — is a story of momentum. Over the past decade, stakeholders across the retirement income landscape have made meaningful investments in member communication and education, and the field has advanced significantly as a result. Meanwhile, research has deepened our understanding of what works and why. And now, a shifting pension landscape combined with technological innovation is poised to accelerate progress further.
When crafting the agenda around this exciting and dynamic topic, we took the PCE’s goals of supporting evidence-based solutions and turning good ideas into real-world action to heart. The day’s activities will examine pension communication through both a strategic and an implementation lens. From presentations that bring you bold ideas and new research insights, to collaborative activities facilitating knowledge exchange, the sessions are designed to challenge your thinking and provide actionable solutions to your member communication challenges.
Each member plays a critical role in the Symposium’s success. Whether it be a pension plan, a service provider, a government ministry or a research institution, our Members bring unique insights and expertise to the discussion — made all the more powerful when you share it with others.
The ideas and experiences you bring forward will strengthen our collective understanding, shape the PCE’s future research agenda and help us identify opportunities to move forward.
