Liverpool based elite Event and Marketing specialists; UKFE, announce Hosted Buyer Programme as a brand new element of the Venue Expo 2015.
Being held at the brand new Exhibition Centre Liverpool on 8-9th September, The Venue Expo will bring together MICE industry professionals and international buyers to conduct business. The Hosted Buyer programme is a milestone for The Venue Expo and is part of the strategy for the exhibition in terms of continually improving and developing the quality and standard of the event. This, coupled with the year on year development of the show most certainly positions The Venue Expo as a key industry event in the UK.
Already stimulating interest from a wide number of buyers as well as bringing new business to Liverpool on a global scale, the programme will welcome influential buyers from a variety of sectors who are serious about engaging in business with exhibitors. This will allow the time that would usually be spent researching and corresponding via email and telephone with clients to be removed, and replaced by face to face business opportunities.

The team will ensure all elements of a buyer’s trip to Liverpool are covered, from food and travel to organising influential meetings with a wide range of industry professionals.
