For the second time, UFI has launched its Next Generation Leadership (NGL) Grant and has invited talented events professionals from around the world to apply.

UFI is calling on members to look within their company and ensure that the best new talent applies for the #nglgrant 2017.

The association will award grants to up to five future leaders who have shown exceptional initiative in driving change and innovation in their area of the exhibition industry.

Together, the winners will investigate the future of exhibitions, working closely with the team at the UFI headquarters in Paris. The winners will present their findings in a special session at the 84th UFI Global Congress in Johannesburg (South Africa) – the world exhibition industry’s leading annual global event.
