UK Conference of the Year – over 1500 Delegates

Aesthetics Media Ltd – Aesthetics Conference and Exhibition    

ACE is an excellent contender for this award because it is not only a leading event within a highly professional industry combining education and commercial content.

We use the latest marketing techniques, focus on improvements year-on-year and consistently achieve all our targets as well as excellent feedback.

Our speakers, sponsors, exhibitors and delegates all have a valuable and enjoyable experience, and we are extremely proud of what we achieve as a small, dedicated team who are passionate about the education of medical aesthetic professionals.

“I’ve been to ACE five or six times and I love it. Everybody that I want to see is here. I can catch up with colleagues, make new acquaintances and see what’s new and consolidate relationships, so it’s an important event in our calendar.” ACE 2018 Delegate

After struggling to cope with capacity issues in 2017, we took over the St. Pancras Renaissance Hotel for the first time in 2018, adding it as a second venue, while retaining Kings Place. This all paid off.

Ahead of his keynote, Erik Barmack, Netflix VP of international original, the most powerful exec in global television commissioning, told the world: “We are all here because it’s important for us to understand what’s happening in the production community. There is so much activity that we are participating in here It’s really one of the more meaningful conferences we go to.”

Our genuine commitment to inclusion also helped take the event to the next level this year. More. than 55% of our speakers were women and our partnership with TriForce Creative Network brought 250 new voices from diverse backgrounds to the event.

We added training workshops, event dailies, new awards and a whole lot more to make Content London 2018 the greatest event in show business.”

The live event was supported by a wider internal pre- and post- cascade communications campaign that underpinned the core messages. Engaging a total of 16,000 colleagues through 2 live roadshow events, and 4 Consumer Live television broadcasts from BT Sports Studios.

Our results truly do speak for themselves – we have a fantastic reputation in the industry as one of the world’s leading women in tech event series. Year-on-year we receive attendee testimonials telling just what an impact the event has had on them, some even that we changed their lives!”

Our team worked with Triumph to deliver all aspects of the experience, including but not limited to creative positioning, full execution of production, delegate engagement, and logistics.

The feedback from the client was fantastic and due to our strong relationship and continued collaboration with the company, we were able to deliver and execute a phenomenal Global Dealer Conference for Triumph dealers from across the globe.

Faversham House Ltd Sustainability Leaders Forum 2019

edie’s flagship sustainability event of the year Sustainability Leaders Forum (SLF) used to be a one-day event, based on a ‘traditional’ conference model, now, against a backdrop of heightened corporate sustainability awareness, the team saw an opportunity to take this event onto a whole new level. In 2017, it was evolved into a two-day conference and exhibition; in 2018, we added a host of ‘interactive’ elements (workshops and event apps); and in 2019, we gave the event a renewed purpose, delivering a truly immersive experience that inspired, informed and empowered delegates to take new sustainability actions.

The results: an event which achieved 49% year-on-year growth in SPEX revenue; a 37 7% increase in delegate growth since adopting the two-day format in 2017; and a Net Promoter Score of +16 In fact, SLF 2019 was edie publisher Faversham House’s biggest ever conference from a revenue perspective

Joining the dots… SLF’s 2019 success comes down to one word: collaboration. This was key to ensure that the editorial, production, marketing and sponsorship teams united from the offset of the project.

MarketforceLive Insurance Innovators Summit

The 18th Insurance Innovators Summit followed a successful relaunch in 2017. The event had previous successes but hadn’t grown for a number of years and performed inconsistently both in sponsorship and delegate numbers.

In 2017, we undertook a bold relaunch and set ourselves some very ambitious targets to refresh and renew the event. 2018 was crucial to solidify these initial changes and take things one step further to ultimately reach our long-term goal: Insurance Innovators Summit as the largest and best insurance event in Europe.

In 2018, Insurance Innovators solidified its brand identity and established itself as leading content producers, reflected in the most-senior speaker list to date, that included 20 out of the top 30 top industry influencers.

Through investing more in innovative marketing, trialling new engagement methods, fine-tuning research and creating the most comprehensive agenda yet, we were able to surpass our ambitious goals and deliver a thoroughly successful event in terms of both revenue and on-the-day experience.

MarketforceLive MoneyLIVE Summit

2018 was the 21st MoneyLIVE Summit following a successful rebrand in 2017. It’s the flagship event in the MoneyLIVE series but had historically performed inconsistently both in sponsorship and delegate numbers.

Building on 2017’s improvements, 2018 was the time to refresh, renew and solidify progress made in 2017 taking things one step further to ultimately reach the long-term goal: MoneyLIVE Summit as a leading global financial services event.

We set ambitious goals amidst tough competition and gave MoneyLIVE Summit 2018 a cohesive brand identity, establishing itself as leading in content which was reflected in the most diverse range of speakers to date.

Through investing more in innovative marketing, trialling new engagement methods, fine-tuning research and creating the most compelling agenda yet, we were able to surpass our goals and deliver a thoroughly successful event in terms of both revenue and on-the-day experience. Delegate and sponsor feedback shows how much the new normal has resonated and we look forward to building on this for the future.

Procurement Leaders World Procurement Congress

Born 15 years ago as a small-scale Forum, and developed into a Congress in 2012, the World Procurement Congress (WPC) is the most sought-after event in procurement, attracting senior procurement professionals globally.

SBL Ideas Ltd This Can Happen

This Can Happen is a solutions-led corporate mental health conference. Launched in 2018 to a sell-out audience of 750 delegates from over 120 companies, the event took place at the Intercontinental Hotel at The 02 with 3 stages, 23 sessions, 60+ speakers and an experiential zone with VR and role play.

This was not an HR conference, rather we had delegations from post room to boardroom since mental health affects every level of every company. Everything we did was solutions-led meaning each session needed to outline to the delegates what they can use in their day to day lives. We went further and produced our ebook which outlined each session, what was discussed with the key solutions.

This has been downloaded over 4,000 times and now sits on hundreds of company intranets as a ready reference mental health tool.

Was it successful? With a part-time team of 5 and no office we attracted delegations from 16 of the top 20 Law firms, 7 of the top 10 Accountancy practices, every major Bank and Insurance company, advertising agencies, food manufacturers and construction companies.

So what’s next? We will have over 1,000 delegates this year. Will you be one of them?

The ESPE Council and Programme Organising Committee had high ambitions for the 2018 Meeting. They wanted to build on the success of previous years to secure the event’s position as the go-to international meeting on paediatric endocrinology These ambitions were threatened when the Meeting was unexpectedly hit by storm Zorba — a rare ‘Medicane’ which resulted in local services and transport being severely disrupted Yet, despite this significant challenge, ESPE 2018 emerged as the most successful Meeting in ESPE’s history ESPE 2018 attracted over 3,500 delegates: 7% more than the previous Meeting and 17% more than when Bioscientifica took over as PCO We received over 1,300 abstracts — the highest number in the Meeting’s history, and all exhibition space was sold out”

The 2018 edition featured a vastly expanded programme, 50% more speakers drawn from a 40% increase in submitted abstracts alongside increased VIP and c-level content featuring high level government and industry speakers.

In 2018, Africa Oil Week celebrated its 25th anniversary, which attracted 1,500 delegates (+5% YOY) from 80 countries, 196 world class speakers, and 15 Ministers.

2018 delivered a highly relevant agenda curated by industry leaders, a sectorised and tailored marketing and PR strategy to improve the delegate experience – delivering a +213% increase on lead generation which resulted in 13% increase above target in new business, and an increase in new business from global bellwether accounts such as Chevron and Deloitte.
The experience delivered resulted in an outstanding NPS delegate score of +27 (+200% increase YOY), and Exhibitor and Sponsor NPS scores of +39, up from +9 in the prior year (+333% increase). The content, quality of delegates, and vast networking opportunities created meant all targets were exceeded and AOW 2018 delivered its most successful conference to date.”

The Cura Foundation – Unite To Cure, the 4th International Vatican Conference

Cura approached Allison+Partners in 2017 and asked the agency to join it on an extraordinary mission: to rally the world around the potential of this new category of medicine to vanquish disease and reduce global suffering. To accomplish this goal, Cura wanted Allison+Partners to help up-level its bi-annual Unite To Cure event at the Vatican so it stands as one of the most high-profile, impactful thought leadership events in the world. The three-day conference, which was held from April 26-28, 2018 within the Vatican Amphitheatre in Italy, reached more than 3 billion people around the world, introducing them to an entire new approach to medicine and changing perceptions, through videos, social media posts and traditional media. Furthermore, the event and our communications efforts, highlighted a key idea: that science and faith are not opposed to one another, but that, in fact, they can co-exist and inspire one another.

Our consumer panel during the inaugural summit in 2018 was a big hit, followed by our trailblazers segment, which celebrated three emerging brands developing food for kids, while the next two days provided a thought-provoking mix of science, consumer insight, food consumption data (what are kids actually eating?), and expert advice on formulation, branding and marketing.

In our 2019 summit, we’ve taken on board feedback from the FOOD FOR KIDS community and will be adding new features and sessions that drill further into how established brands can tap into current trends when developing products for children, plus we’ll be adding retailer perspectives, more interactive sessions and a deeper look at kids’ palates.

Banks Sadler

The Banks Sadler Events Team is an exceptional, integral part of the business. Not only have they grown their revenue by over 70% in the last 12 months, they have also nurtured a substantial list of current and new clients purely through recommendations for their reputable personal service. Come any challenge, they have united to deliver an impressive portfolio of creative events from Sony PlayStation’s game launches to Estée Lauder’s quarterly training events, for over 12,398 delegates. These remarkable results could not be achieved if it weren’t for the Events Team remaining a close-knit group of friends as well as colleagues, and for this, they truly are an outstanding conference team.

De Vere Cranage Estate has the most outstanding conference team comprising of Helen Leech, Conference Planning Manager who has worked in her role at the venue for 19 years Helen’s deputy, Rachel Ranger has worked with Helen and the team for 13 years together with a supporting team of 6 full time and part-time team members totalling 47 years between them There is one simple solution why this team is outstanding and that is the Culture, everyone is nurtured and developed and are inspired by the fact that they really do make a difference in a property that all colleagues and customers alike call home. At Cranage Estate our philosophy is clear – we believe in and demonstrate our company mission which is “to put heart and soul into meetings, events and every hospitality moment” We understand that our colleagues are our most valuable asset and we strongly believe that they are the reason our customers return week after week We like to surprise and delight our conference delegates as much as our trainers, from morning energiser sessions with our leisure club instructors, creating a company logo out of Lego, homemade cupcakes and custom made chocolate bars.


De Vere Holborn Bars

In 2018 De Vere Holborn Bars successfully built on the previous year’s success, growing revenue by 9.8% against 2017. The team also delivered excellent results in efficiency whilst increasing guest satisfaction rates, all against the backdrop of a nationally important event taking place at the venue, which presented a number of operational challenges, all of which were dealt with smoothly and efficiently.

The impressive results are testament to an enthusiastic, motivated and well-nurtured team taking a proactive approach to delivering exemplary customer service. While a high-quality baseline service level is firmly adhered to, each customer is treated as an individual and the approach tailored to their requirements.

In the early days we had one producer (Jeff Ando), an event manager (Anna Skinner) two event assistants (including Mark Daly), an officer manager (Claire Ali), one delegate sales person, one design person and our CEO (Peter Gubbins), who was in charge of sponsorship sales.

As a conference team we have strived to provide the best quality and attendance at our events. We work in the niche market of trade finance and we focus on holding conferences in emerging markets which is often challenging – this includes markets such as Egypt, Kenya, Mongolia, Mexico, Indonesia and Ghana, among many others. And we don’t shy away from potentially dangerous countries and still run events in places such as Moscow and Istanbul. For that reason alone, I would like the team to win this award!


Incisive Media

The events team at Incisive Media are 50 people strong encompassing conference production, operations, event marketing, event sales, delegate engagement and delegate sales working across 9 brands. In 2018 this team produced 56 conferences and forums attributing to 52% of the overall event revenue. Our greatest strength is the breadth of experience we have, we’re constantly looking to adopt new and innovative ways of working and collaborating to streamline our processes. Working across several brands allows us to share best practice tips and capitalise on the wealth of knowledge amongst us.The Incisive Media events team has become smarter and more innovative than ever. We are everything a market-leading event team should be and continue to keep originality, creativity and efficiency at the core of our stimulating conceptions.


Royal College of Physicians

The Royal College of Physicians Meetings and Events team were tasked with creating and designing an exceptional event to celebrate the college’s 500th anniversary. The event needed to fit within a tight budget and showcase the venue to key prospects and entertain top clients. Coming up with an event for such a landmark anniversary was no mean feat. Together the RCP team collaborated to create the RCP 500 Years of Summer Festival held in the venue’s medicinal garden with street food stalls and fabulous entertainment. The event took guests travelling through time, igniting their senses and sampling five centuries of gastronomic delights and new world cuisine, whilst getting hands on with the foodie experts and finding out how Physicians have been at the heart of many historical developments. With so many facets to pull together and a full programme of activities, the dynamic Meetings & Events team pulled out all the stops to create a truly spectacular and memorable occasion.


SBL Ideas – This Can Happen

How do you put on a brand new, sell out conference for 750 delegates with no full time staff or an office?

This Can Happen is a solutions-led corporate mental health conference which launched in 2018 to a sell out audience of 750 delegates from over 120 companies. The event took place at the Intercontinental Hotel at The 02 with 3 stages, 23 sessions, 60+ speakers and an experiential zone with VR and role play.

We had a core team of five part timers taking responsibility for the core skills needed to deliver This Can Happen – Mental Health advocacy, super content, sales and marketing and production.

Technology played an important role in underpinning our processes and systems but the real key to our success was we learnt that a small group who are passionate about their event’s subject matter can achieve so much.

Best Operations Team

Bioscientifica 

The ESPE Meeting is the flagship event of the European Society for Paediatric Endocrinology (ESPE) It provides a global platform for scientists and doctors to share the latest research and clinical advances in paediatric endocrine care, helping to improve the lives of children with endocrine conditions.

The Bioscientifica operations team for the 2018 ESPE Meeting in Athens was expertly led by a Head of Events, a Senior Event Manager and an Events Team Manager — all with extensive experience in the industry and over 5 years working for Bioscientifica. However, the majority of the support team were new to the events industry, with less than a year’s experience each.

ESPE 2018 posed significant challenges for this new team. The Meeting was unexpectedly hit by tropical storm Zorba — a rare ‘Medicane’ which resulted in local services and transport being severely disrupted. Yet, despite this setback, the operations team pulled together to deliver the most successful Meeting in ESPE’s history. This is a testament to their work ethic, motivation and excellent team work.


Capacity Media

Capacity Media Operations Team consists of 11 members some new to the events world and others with over 12 years’ of event experience. Each member has an important role and voice within the team.

Our goal is simple – enhance our company brand through giving our clients and delegates the best ever event experience whilst managing our risks and liability. Our customers are at the heart of everything we do, no job is too big or too small for us whether it is allowing our clients to access us onsite via WhatsApp or to pre-event briefings. We strive to adapt our offerings to both our sponsors and clients and over the past years have been able to add value with innovative ideas such as tiered level branding ensuring greater exposure for our high-level sponsors and introducing cultural performances at some of our events. We have a real ‘can do’ attitude here at Capacity Media and stay ahead of the game by anticipating every challenge or potential problem in advance and making sure we have a plan to deal with it. We are very proud of the work we do and consider ourselves the titans of the event industry!

We truly believe we have the best teams in the business and the feedback we receive and business wins show this.


DRPG – Live Division

A powerhouse of a team, we are so proud of each and every person that makes DRPG Live. We are nothing without our people and we are so lucky that we have a team that care, want to make a difference, are passionate about what they do but most importantly make ‘Anything’s Possible’.

Continued growth of DRPG has meant that in 2018 we were often pushed at the seams, and whilst we brought in freelance partners at times to ease the pressure, this sometimes became counterproductive as it added more pressure to our teams to ensure we protected the G culture and service standards. The biggest test and challenges were with a large project in June that we delivered for one of our key accounts. The largest and most complicated project of the year with over 60 full time employees in leading roles, it pushed and challenged our team in new ways. On top of this we had our busiest month and weeks at the same time. Never wanting to let anyone down our team rose to the challenge and found new ways of working together to deliver exceptional results.

Resource continued to be our biggest challenge of all, on top of this we have an internal re-structure following the change to the leadership team, seeing the merge of 3 areas of the business come in to one under one leader with new direction and vision.


EMAP Publishing – ConE/HLG Events Team

The ConE/HLG Events Team cover all types of events from conferences to festivals, careers fairs to clubs and roundtables to awards ceremonies across the construction, engineering, healthcare and local government portfolios.

Managing 15,000 attendees throughout 2018, organisation and teamwork is integral to orchestrating this busy and varied workload. Working with such large clientele, customer service is at the forefront of our team ethos.

2018 delivered many successes, with strong numbers to back this. Though our proudest achievement was increasing our festivals from one to three, which required exceptional team collaboration, cost management and attention to detail whilst pushing this ambitious team out of their comfort zone with a challenging 24hr programme to deliver.

We know that as a team understanding the industry, nurturing and promoting leadership within the team, and listening to our customers base will secure our teams’ continued success.


Pageant Media

The team work on both an individual and collaborative level to deliver 200 annual high end events focusing on the financial services industry.
