Beam has appointed three
new directors as it aims to drive the association's growth and strategic vision.
Tracy Winsworth, MD of Trinity Event
Solutions, has taken on the
role of commercial director alongside Ben Hioco. Their focus will be on
building strategic relationships that enable the industry to collaborate more
effectively with key partners, developing best practices, with the intention of
supporting beam members in achieving their business objectives.
"I am excited to step into the role of commercial director at beam," said Winsworth. "Our aim is to
establish meaningful partnerships that will enhance the collective strength of
the industry whilst providing direct value to our members. We want to ensure
they are equipped with the best resources and opportunities for growth."
Joining the board as a marketing director is Ben Hull, MD at Bright Vision Events, who will take on a
joint role working with the marketing action group and agency engagement group. Hull will focus on strengthening beam’s identity further and assist in
broadening the association's appeal to a wider audience of agents.
"Beam is an incredible association with a strong
legacy, and I am eager to build upon its established identity," commented
Ben Hull. "By reinforcing who we are and what we stand for, we can elevate
our presence within the industry and create even greater engagement and value
for our members."
Finally, Kieron Bowen, sales director at Eventurous, will assume the responsibilities of ESG director, working with partners to strengthen beam’s
sustainability proposition and ensure ESG remains at the forefront of the
association’s agenda.
"Sustainability and responsible business practices are
now critical considerations for our industry," said Bowen. "I
am passionate about working closely with our members and partners to create
meaningful ESG strategies that support long-term industry resilience and
positive change."
Each director is supported by a dedicated action group, consisting of volunteers representing beam's membership.
Louisa Watson, chair of beam, said: "Beam’s strength lies in its ability to
represent the collective voice of our diverse membership, and our board
appointments reflect this. With leadership spanning agencies, suppliers, and
venues, we are well positioned to support the evolving needs of our industry. We
look forward to working together to drive significant progress, ensuring beam
remains a dynamic and influential force."
