September 09, 2013· · tags: Corporate Meetings, england, Europe, event planning, London, nternational Special Events Society, UK

A ‘Creative Forum’ is to be launched next month, giving UK event professionals a place to meet, network and share inspiration. The initiative is pioneered by the International Special Events Society (ISES) UK Chapter and will be chaired by ISES member and Live Union’s creative strategy director Jez Paxman. “The UK event sector is world famous for its creativity, yet the creatives at its heart have no dedicated forum through which to meet, share inspiration or promote their discipline,” said Paxman. “It’s great that ISES are providing an opportunity for us to change this. The forum will be for a broad church of designers, writers, strategists and creative directors.” Read More

The list of the meetings, parties, and industry gatherings that make the most impact in New York year after year. As New York’s event landscape grows increasingly diverse, the list of the city’s top 100 gatherings becomes harder to define.
