The conference was held at two locations and connected via a Zoom call; the Party Headquarters at Bukit Timah, and its branch location. PSP’s 1st party conference was the 1st CEC meeting of the founding members held on 13th April 2019.

Last year, Mr Leong Mun Wai and Ms Hazel Poa – the two chosen by the Progress Singapore Party (PSP) to take up Non-Constituency MP seats – stepped down from leadership positions in the party to focus on their parliamentary duties.
