The ICCA UK & Ireland Chapter’s conference took place on 4-5 April at the ICC Birmingham, bringing together venues, destinations and suppliers.
Titled Navigating Uncertainty – On So Many Levels, the conference was the largest ICCA UK & I Conference to date, welcoming over 110 people and 30 new delegates.
The biggest learning from the event was that the future of our industry is deeply connected to the ideas of legacy and wellness, on both an individual and organisational level.
Topics at the event included: an overview of the Commonwealth Games; hybrid events; partnership approaches to New Zero; inclusion at events; among others.
Diane Waldron, chair of the ICCA UK & Ireland commented: “Seeing such a significant growth in attendance is testament to the hard work our chapter continues to do as we support each other both personally and as organisations.
“Thank you to Birmingham for their incredible hospitality throughout the event as well as Levy UK for their ongoing support. The speakers demonstrated the importance of legacy and wellbeing through all the sessions, and I am sure everyone in attendance left with new ideas, connections and opportunities for their business.”
