In partnership with Speakers Corner, author and behavioural expert Jez Rose will deliver an opening keynote session to inspire attendees to drive meaningful change through psychology, insight, and humour, equipping them with the tools and mindset to build a future based on meaningful progress.

In a fireside chat on Making unforgettable events, anywhere, Holly Moore, founder & CEO of Make Events, will share how some of the most unforgettable events happen in places they were never meant to.

Meanwhile, our afternoon workshops will tackle The ROE Revolution: AI and the Age of Audience Co-Creation with INVNT’s MD EMEA Claudia Stephenson, and VP of global business development Peter Clarke; and Creativity Is the Experience: Stop Designing Events, Start Designing Connection with First Event’s head of creative strategy Chloe Patrickson and head of tech & innovation, Max Collishaw.

The event will once again bring together top northern buyers and global suppliers for a day of meaningful one-to-one meetings, fresh connections, and inspiring content.
