ABOUT THE BUSINESS CAR AWARDS

The Business Car Awards have recognised excellence in the automotive fleet sector for more than a decade. They have identified the best cars that fleets should be running, highlighted innovation and fleet expertise among suppliers, as well as rewarding excellence among fleet operators.

The decisions are made after careful analysis by experienced judging panels comprising independent experts in the automotive and fleet arenas, ensuring entrants are evaluated by professionals with many decades of knowledge and insight between them.

Hybrid
2020 and 2021 have been unprecedented years for the events industry, which has affected every aspect of how we engage with our target audiences. Handshakes and business card exchanges have been replaced with virtual networking lounges and instant messaging.

At Progressive Media International, we have led the market in successfully transforming our event calendar into online activities, with impressive engagement numbers which out have outshone our competitors in not only retaining but actually growing our audiences.

Now, as we plan to emerge from a fully virtual world and re-enter physical event activations, we face a challenge on providing a safe environment for us to meet again and our intention to host this event in a hybrid (both physical and virtual synchronised) format.

So, what does this mean for this event? Our team of marketeers and specialist event producers have consulted the market, are working closely with venues and conducting all the risk-assessments required to be able to bring us all together in one room again.

What to expect
• A London-based event
• Constant risk-assessment on the status of the pandemic and its effects on events
• Final decision to be made on the scope of the physical elements 8 weeks prior to the event date
• Maximum capacity allowed in physical format to be complied with, in the venue space

• Local delegates invited to the physical event to engage with our partners onsite
• Live streaming of the physical elements to an additional global virtual audience
• All delegates in-person will be required to comply with government event guidelines
• Professional event moderators will connect our physical and virtual audiences effectively

TTJ Awards

17th September 2021

The annual TTJ Awards has been held by the Timber Trades Journal (TTJ) since 1997 and it has grown into the timber industry’s leading annual awards event, attracting attendees from the UK and worldwide. This year’s 25th anniversary edition will be a hybrid event: featuring a live in-person lunchtime awards function in London on Sept 17, with livestreaming to an additional digital audience.

The Awards focuses on voted for and judged categories. The voted categories recognise service excellence and product quality across the timber industry in the key areas of wood-based panels, softwood, hardwood, joinery, structural timber systems and garden products. The rigorous and impartial voting process is handled in a digital voting system whereby timber buyers vote for their best performing suppliers.

The New Statesman’s 4th annual Cyber Security in Financial Services conference is back to take place on the 23 – 24 November 2021.

Whilst we eagerly await a return to live events and networking, the health and wellbeing of all involved must remain our priority, so considering the ongoing developments and concerns around the pandemic, the conference will return in 2021 as a hybrid event.

The pressure is on the financial sector supporting business in the ‘return to normal’ or the ‘new normal’ as well as handling this transition themselves. Banks must remain competitive amid digital transformation and the recent explosion in cyber-crime, not only whilst upholding the strongest information security systems but also while adapting to the impact of the pandemic and Brexit. Additionally, the complications of tight data regulations continue to evolve, as well as the sector opening to challengers. The New Statesman Cyber Security in Financial Services programme will address these challenges, opportunities and more that the sector faces whilst maintaining its cyber resilience.

The conference presents the opportunity to showcase your organisation and engage with influential decision-makers. Attendees can share ideas, innovations, initiatives and take part in virtual chats and private 1-2-1 conversations. There will also be the opportunity to engage with presentations on the main stage, and in Q&As with the speakers and sponsors.

Thought leaders and senior figures will present throughout the day to examine current regulations, key trends, and developments.
