We’re delighted to announce that we’re partnering with engagement consultancy Open Audience for the inaugural micebook Ventures, taking place in Liverpool on 31 August-2 September 2022.

The agency will work closely with the micebook team, and our partners in Liverpool, advising on and sourcing the right technology platform, and coordinating and consulting on our guest journey and the design and flow of the event to provide the best possible experience for delegates

Open Audience founder & CEO Leslie Robertson shares micebook’s passion for challenging the status quo. “Audience expectations have changed a lot, with things like accessibility and sustainability high on the agenda, and we need to do things differently to future proof our events. Our goal at Open Audience is all about turning passive delegates into engaged contributors no matter what the format – virtual, hybrid or live.

“Partnering with micebook gives us a great opportunity to work with a network of great people who are getting with the programme. This is an opportunity to start conversations in a more meaningful way, drive change and model behaviours from the top down, which is exciting.”

micebook Ventures aims to transform the world of business events as a force for good, and is now open for registration for courageous, change-making business leaders. The event will redefine the 1:1 buyer-supplier meetings space with a key focus on high-level content on environment, health and technology.

Keynote speakers at the opening debate of our inaugural event, taking place at Spaces at The Spine, in The Knowledge Quarter Liverpool, include Tara Ruttley, newly appointed Chief Scientist, Orbital Reef, at Blue Origin and former Associate Chief Scientist at NASA, and Karen Brady, who leads Fundraising at the renowned Liverpool School of Tropical Medicine.

Open Audience is one of several strategic delivery partners for Ventures, alongside others including Liverpool Convention Bureau, EventDecision and our venue partners.
