Bringing together the exhibition community from all across Europe, it will continue the debate from last year where over 220 exhibition industry professionals from 35 countries attended the conference in Verona (Italy). The Conference will cover global opportunities from a European perspective, including sessions on the USA, China and Russia. Trade wars and a turbulent global economic outlook mean organisers need to remain flexible and pragmatic in running and planning their businesses, while the rewards for those who do grow overseas can be great.
The two-day event provides the opportunity to hear from world-class speakers from our industry and beyond, and also to enjoy first-class networking in a relaxed and informal setting – from the state-of-the-art Vox Conference Centre to the Gala Dinner at the medieval Warwick castle built in 1068.
The UFI European Conference takes place in May each year. It has previously been hosted in Verona (2018), Cologne (2017), Basel (2016), and Istanbul (2015), and is open to UFI members and non-members. Based on data from Explori, a global UFI research partner, participants regularly rate this unique conference as one of the very best opportunities for networking and best-practice learning in the industry.
UFI has scheduled three regional conferences for 2019: for Asia/Pacific in Tokyo (14-15 March), for Middle East/Africa in Dubai (8-9 April), and for Europe in Birmingham (15-17 May).
