Our Conference producers have all been trained to carefully develop the most relevant, topical and inspiring Conferences, Workshops and Masterclasses and Training in Defence, Security, Energy, Utilities, Finance and Pharmaceutical sectors. They are all committed to making your time with us productive and profitable. The SMi Group with over 19 years of Conference Experience can guarantee to bring you the right topic at the right to time, with the right network.

How do we achieve this? Firstly, we invest a huge amount of time in researching and developing the Conference, Workshop and Masterclass ideas. We then consult with industry Experts, Key Opinion Leaders, high level Speakers, industry Partners and Sponsors and most importantly you the delegate, on the relevance of the content of those Conferences, Workshops, Masterclasses and Training. This ensures it is right event for you and your business. Our private Online Communities provide the ideal forum to engage research and develop Business Critical Event ideas.

We will continue to bring you innovations and advances to our products ensuring you are always at the forefront of change, whilst bringing exceptional service and value for your Conference investment.

One of the developments we have recently introduced is the creation of our very own bespoke SMi Event Communities. These are exclusive, private and secure Communities in which our clients will Interact, Converse, Meet, Share, Engage and Network. This will build and expand your experience beyond the Conference, Workshop and Masterclass you attend. However, these are not just another ‘Social Network’ these Communities have been specifically designed around the needs of professional attendee and with you, in mind. This allows our clients to foster relationships beyond the 2 or 3 event days but to year and career long engagement with other delegates, speakers, supports, and partners. As well as our highly experienced community managers.

Please take your time to browse our tailored portfolio of Conferences, Workshops, Masterclasses, Training and Online Communities; we believe we have the best Conferences in the Defence, Security, Energy, Utilities, Finance and Pharmaceutical sectors available.
