The gathering offers the opportunity for buyers to connect with suppliers at Edinburgh’s International Conference Centre on 19 March.
There will be more than 36 practical workshops and masterclasses and 50 speakers from across the UK events industry.
Delegates can hear about the latest event trends, technologies and marketing. Industry experts will speak about collaborative working for incentives, event legacy, the future of event technology and managing international audiences.
