The #power of #events! We create it, we feel it, we support it!


Activate Events & Communications is proud to be an Official Supporter and Contributor to “The Power of Events” industry initiative.


Structured as a voluntary, not-for-profit company limited by guarantee, The Power of Events (UK) aims to support the events industry by:


  1. Creating a communication hub which will provide event #analysis and #evaluation
  2. Working in partnership with universities in England, Wales, Scotland and Norther Ireland to design and deliver #research and data that demonstrates the social, economic and environmental impact of events across the UK
  3. Providing a #showcase for the UK Events Industry that fully maps out the range of sectors, expertise and networks.

We will continue to support Rick Stainton and Simon Hughes who have been working tirelessly to ensure that the preeminence, world-class expertise and desirability of the UK #eventindustry are showcased, recognised, and respected by the wide business community, in the UK and globally.


Evolving out of the covid response collaborative One Industry One Voice, The Power of Events was created in April 2022 and just two months on they have announced the launch of a splash page for the planned UK events industry comms hub. This captures the work completed on developing a clear vision and mission, the new brand, key objectives and the core pillars supporting this ambitious initiative.

In May, I attended a FAM trip to Abu Dhabi to explore how this dynamic Emirate can better support your next corporate event. Firstly, I would like to thank Nikki Buse and Roger Bradley at Destinations Unlimited and Keith Barron at the Abu Dhabi Convention Bureau for hosting me on this amazing trip. And a big thanks to Gaby Seikaly, Reem Nassar and all the team at Gulf Circle Tours DMC for their hospitality, passion and knowledge and all the incredible venues and suppliers who went above and beyond to showcase what makes Abu Dhabi so special. I hope my experiences will give you some insight into this dynamic destination and answer the question ‘Why should Abu Dhabi be your next corporate event location?’
