ABOUT CONFERENCE NEWS UNITING THE INDUSTRY Since its birth in 2003, Conference News (CN) has served as the official information hub for the UK MICE industry, forging connections with event professionals throughout the country, and providing a platform for like-minded individuals to communicate and learn. Now with a combined community of over 100,000 event professionals, Conference News has become home to the largest collection of based corporate, agency and association event planners in the UK, and we’re still continuing to grow! What makes us a little different to the rest at Conference News is our relationship with our community. This unique approach has been something we’ve lived by for a number of years and allows us to form stronger connections with our community, and therefore understand their needs and wants in a far more detailed sense.
