Support Organisations
When mapping out all the key features of the UK Events Industry, it becomes very clear that there are a significant number of support organisations that have been established to provide specialist help and have developed both products and services in order to do so. Most are not-for-profit or B Corp certified businesses, others are commercial operations – once again the broad range and breadth of the whole of the UK Events industry is reflected in the organisations The Power of Events platform is showcasing.
There is a clear consensus across all the 7 sectors that one of the biggest issues facing everyone working in events around the globe is sustainability and meeting the challenges of climate change.
