beam’s continued partnership with Mash Media and International Confex again includes a beam buddy station, which will be run by volunteers from beam membership action group.

If you’re thinking of attending, we have 30 free supplier registration places worth £250.00 each available on a first come first served basis: contact us at membership@beam-org.uk for more info. Agency members can register free of charge here.

Gathering for 2 days annually, International Confex boasts a floorplan packed with 200+ suppliers, venues, tech platforms and more alongside 7 booming content theatres. Allowing you to find every resource you could need in one place to gain a new perspective on where the industry is heading. If you’re looking to beat the curve and get a grasp on yet-to-be-released software. Confex 2024 is where you need to be.

Running for 40 years, Confex has become a household name for #eventprofs of all levels. The conference programme is packed with 60+ industry-leading speakers. Featuring faces from all sectors of the industry join forces to question, educate and inspire attendees to reach maximum potential and expand horizons. 

The value you gain on-site doesn’t just stay on-site. Confex is a year-round resource hub aiming to showcase what’s new in the industry and offer support to anyone looking to find the ‘one-stop-shop’ for event planning and organisation.

beam Buddy Station

Remember how daunting your first exhibition was? We do! This is why, we will be back with our popular beam Buddy Station at International Confex 2024. We aim to pair an industry newbie with someone willing to share their wisdom and help all event profs to maximize their time on-site. Imposter syndrome is impacting the industry on a monumental scale. Whether that’s a lingering legacy of our social industry shutting down over the pandemic or just feeling like you are completely unqualified, we are taking time to nurture those entering (or returning) to the events sphere.

Buddies will be contacted prior to the show with joining instructions outlining where to be and when! We will be hosting a meet and networking session on the morning of 28 February to allow everyone in the scheme the opportunity to meet one another.

You can opt in to be a buddy during registration. Join International Confex at ExCeL London on 28-29 February 2024 and show your support for the events industry.
