Become a Solution Provider

We work closely with a handpicked selection of solution providers who make it all possible. 
Solution providers invest in accessing the event through sponsorship, which allows qualified delegates to attend at no cost. (And to receive some exclusive perks along the way). 
While there’s no “one type” of attendee we look for, we use the following as general guidelines for complimentary passes: 
&#8211; Company size: 100+ employees or annual revenue of £15m+ 
&#8211; Seniority level: Senior Manager or above 
&#8211; Intentions: We do not offer complimentary passes to consultants or sales representatives. (And of course, we ask that delegates be employed in the industry corresponding to the event they apply for).

Qualified Delegates Attend Free

We work closely with a handpicked selection of solution providers who make it all possible. 
Simply put, our solution providers underwrite the cost of the event, which allows invited executives to attend our Summits at no cost. Whether your choose to attend in-person or online, conference passes are always complimentary for qualified professionals.
For our in-person summits, this includes a one night hotel stay, all dining experiences, open bar, and a generous travel reimbursement. For online summits, attendees are eligible for up to £300 to spend in our rewards marketplace, similar to Amazon.

Our sponsors underwrite the majority of your cost of attendance.

Your Pass is Covered

Experience the difference. This is the only event truly catered to you and your individual needs.
Every event attendee is assigned a member of the attendee relations team from the moment your registration is complete. We get to know everything about what you&#8217;re looking to achieve with your professional and departmental goals.
Your attendee relations executive will work with you to build a talk track, find relevant solution providers, and handle every aspect of your attendance, all the way down to dietary needs. Complete your registration and leave the rest to us.

Your Summit experience is fully customised around you and your needs.

Personalised Experience

Come in with a challenge. Leave with options, contacts, and a game-plan.
Researching B2B solutions can be a long, frustrating process—especially when you’re already stretched thin. That’s what makes One-on-One meetings so powerful. Instead of wandering an exhibition hall, we ask about your priorities in advance, and arrange short, informal meetings with solution providers who match your needs.
It’s a fast, easy, and no-pressure way to handle month’s worth of solutions research with ease. As a thank you, our solution providers will cover your entire costs of the event, including your conference pass and other event benefits. It’s a win-win!

Make genuine progress with solution meetings tailored to your needs.
