Applications open for UFI’s Next Generation Leadership Grant

Applications are now open for UFI’s Next Generation Leadership Grant.

The NGL grant provides an opportunity for the next generation of exhibition professionals to develop their skills and networks.

Applicants must submit a video statement, alongside a written application and mentorship matchmaking form.

Successful applicants will take part in a workshop at the UFI European Conference in Gothenburg, Sweden, and then deliver a presentation at the UFI Global Congress in Muscat, Oman. Following this, they will be enrolled in a mentoring programme.

Laura Docampo, Head of Digital Transformation, Fira de Barcelona, was one of last year’s recipients. She commented: “2019 was the most exciting year of my professional life. The UFI NGL Grant gave me the chance to share ideas about the exhibition industry, to learn from innovators and senior professionals, to work hard with amazing colleagues and to meet incredible people. Everybody should have this opportunity at least once in their lifetime!”
