Delegates


Each year, over 1000 of the most powerful decision makers attend our manufacturing and supply chain events to learn, network and conduct business.

Attracting senior level directors and vice presidents who have budgetary responsibility in excess of £1million, attendance at our summits means:

Enhanced learning and networking for event delegates

We recognise the importance of sharing knowledge with peers and building useful contacts, and our facilitated networking sessions with leading solution providers to a delegate’s business challenges lets them do just that.

How does it work?

Our specialist team works closely with delegate attendees to get an in depth understanding of what it is they are looking to achieve at the event and who in particular they would like to meet with.

A personal itinerary is then prepared for them based on a pre-qualified list of solution providers that they have selected, or who have selected them.

Restricted supplier access means delegate attendees are free to network productively without unnecessary approaches from companies that do not add value. Our careful vetting process has led delegate attendees to continuously rate us as the best networking tool in the industry.

We make it our business to ensure delegates make the most of their time by only meeting with the people with whom they share common business goals.
