Event Leaders Exchange (ELX), a peer-to-peer community of senior
event professionals, has joined forces with conference venue, ExCeL London.
ExCeL London’s function will be to collaborate and share its
knowledge and learnings from playing host to major international events.
James Rees, executive director, conference
& events, ExCeL London said, “From the team heading it up, through to the
highly-respected corporate leaders within the community, we knew that it would
be the perfect fit for us. I believe that not only will ELX members benefit
from our experience as a venue, but we can also gain valuable insight from this
skilled group of event industry innovators.”
ELX is an invitation-only professional community that brings
together senior corporate event leaders of large global corporations to share
ideas and industry insights.
The ELX community was launched by Kimberly
Meyer, David
Kliman, Chloe
Richardson, and Mark
Brewster and now has more than 70 global heads of events members from
companies including Allianz, Cisco, Google, Siemens, T-Mobile and Walmart.
Chloe Richardson, managing director of ELX, added: "I have attended and
organised many events at ExCeL London and as a world-class venue that hosts
hundreds of events each year, I think our ELX members will learn a huge amount
from this valued partnership.”
