The future stars of the exhibition industry have received their awards at International Confex and the National Sales Conference is delighted to support this important initiative in recognising and developing young talent.
As a partner of the ‘EN 30under30’, the National Sales Conference will be providing the winners with a full access pass to their professional development event on 23rd November, so they continue to grow and develop within the event industry, whilst networking with 600+ C-level executives, revenue leaders and sales professionals.
Presenting the awards, Exhibition News Editor, Emily Wallin said: “There were a number of key features in a lot of the entries this year. Not only have they all shown dedication, commitment and excellence in their own roles, but there was also a real desire to improve the industry as a whole, which we are delighted to celebrate.
“Many were scored highly for commitments to improving sustainability and diversity, which we all know is where exhibitions have traditionally fallen short.
“There was also a real sense of wanting to nurture new talent and encourage others into the exciting world of exhibitions.”
EN portfolio director Max Agostini said: “We’re really looking forward to working with this group for the year ahead and helping nurture this talent into the future leaders of the exhibition community.”
Steve Lindsey, Event Director, said: “The National Sales Conference is a fully CPD accredited event, that aims to ensure attendees become the best version of themselves, whilst achieving their career goals and winning new business. We felt this partnership was a perfect match for EN’s 30under30, and we are proud to be supporting new talent as they progress and develop their career. There is so much to celebrate within the industry, congratulations to all the winners!’
