Elevate, the free mentorship programme for the events industry, has announced a group of new partners to support the launch of its sixth season.
The new partners include Camm & Hooper (principal venue partner), Owl Live (principal agency partner), Event Decision (results partner), Castlebell X10 (talent partner), Virtual Event Directory (supplier partner) and Event Cycle (sustainability partner).
The 2022 programme was launched in style at Tanner Warehouse, the Bermondsey Street venue owned by Camm & Hooper.
Derick Martin, CEO of Camm & Hooper, said: “I’m delighted that the company is going to be the principal venue partner of the Elevate mentoring programme this year. This means we will be hosting a full series of events for Elevate, from the launch at Tanner Warehouse through to the monthly networking at Tanner & Co.”
Mel Noakes, co-founder of Elevate and head of sponsorship and events for Santander UK, commented: “Over the past six years, we have heard so many stories about how this programme has supported people. It’s a privilege to play a role in these stories and know that we are supporting an industry and community that we love to see thrive.”
Max Fellows, co-founder of Elevate, events business consultant and co-founder of GlobalEventSuppliers.com, added: “When we set up this programme six years ago, we had plenty of ambition but no idea how much impact we could really have. Now over 1,200 people have been a part of the Elevate experience.
“Our new commercial partners not only align with our vision, ambition, and ethos, but are enabling Elevate to grow, support even more professionals and, most importantly, remain totally free.”
