These include Dissertation Showcases, a collaboration with Northampton University, Greenwich University, and Manchester Metropolitan University to shine a light on the research being conducted by the 2025 graduating class entering the workforce this summer.
To support and better inform the panels at The Power of Events Keynote stage at CONFEX and the panel at the Event Production Show, the Events Industry Insight App will also be deploying a number of short pulse checks covering a range of topics.
