I am lucky enough to have incredible and inspirational women @GES_EMEA as my colleagues and have the pleasure to work with amazing and empowering women in the events industry, every single day! Thank You and Happy International Women's Day! #InternationalWomensDay

Looks like some good news for Live Events on the horizon! #eventprofs #events

[Emma Poulton @EmmaP_Events]

Always nice when you are on a call, glance down and this pops up on your phone... #lightattheendofthetunnel #positivefriday

[Emma Poulton @EmmaP_Events]

This is brilliant news! I feel like there has been a turn in the events industry over the past few weeks with clients and colleagues feeling increasingly positive and the below news is even more reason to celebrate! #eventprofs #wemakeevents #events

@MartyFullardUAE @RishiSunak I ended up with management in the leisure industry 🙄🤦🏼‍♀️

[Robert Largan @robertlargan]

Just raised the importance of the business events industry and how it can be a crucible for economic recovery if given support. I also highlighted some amazing cultural events such as @BuxtonFestival, which are vital for our local economy.

To those that stand in Parliament Square today, representing the industry - thank you, especially from those who can’t make it! ❤️
I proudly stand with my fellow #eventprofs
The Exhibitions and Events Industry desperately needs help and Government Support!

[Lucy Allan @lucyallan]

If other European countries can safely operate events, conferences and exhibitions then so can we. If Govt forcibly closes businesses that can operate safely, then it’s reasonable to expect to be compensated.

[Emma Poulton @EmmaP_Events]

Fantastic news 🙌🏼

[Oliver Dowden @OliverDowden]

And last but not least...

Business events and Conferences will be permitted to resume from 1st October

These are a really important driver of economic growth and crucial to city centre hospitality businesses

[Emma Poulton @EmmaP_Events]

Fully supporting the #RedAlert campaign today. We are in desperate need of support and most importantly action from the Government or the Events Industry is at risk of collapse. We need a plan for the future to ensure so we can all enjoy live events once again!

[Excel London @ExceLLondon]

Amazing things happen under our roof: discussions on medical advancements, debates on tackling climate change and trade worth billions of pounds. This work can and must restart safely - but we need a date to plan to.

[Michael Hirst OBE @ukeventsexec]

Welcome support for #arts and #culture BUT does it extend to #event venues and suppliers who showcase the best of Britain’s business with #creative flair? #Conferences and #exhibitions need support too. @OliverDowden @HuddlestonNigel @RishiSunak @EventsAreGREAT #eventprofs
