Confex Future Focus, the spin-off exhibition of International Confex, is set to take place at Victoria Warehouse, Manchester from 4-5 July.
International Confex has long been known as the event industries show, having been running for 35 years, it is the longest-standing event of its kind. Every year thousands of event professionals attend the exhibition, travelling both nationally and internationally, but nearly four decades later organisers have decided the north deserves a show of its own.
Introducing Confex Future Focus….
Confex Future Focus will offer attendees an exciting opportunity to experience for themselves what the future has in store for the event industry in a live, interactive environment. The two-day event will see Manchester's Victoria Warehouse transformed into treasure-trove of inspiration for event buyers looking to implement the latest creative ideas and technological innovations into their events.
Central to the show is its free-to-attend programme of educational seminars and debates. Visitors will have the choice of two theatres, each offering a packed schedule of thought-provoking and inspirational content delivered by highly-knowledgeable and experienced speakers working within the industry. Delegates will be able to dip in and out of either the Keynote Theatre of the Theatre of the Future.
