2005 is set to be the best year yet for the highly successful National Incentive Show, the UKís only exhibition in the marketplace focusing on incentives and business gifts. Now in its 10th year, The National Incentive Show is launching a comprehensive seminar programme and will be co-located with six other shows, ensuring that the event continues to be the most valued date in the diary for suppliers and buyers. The show will take place from 13th-15th September 2005, at the NEC in Birmingham.

The new seminar programme will be scheduled over the duration of the three-day show, with six half hour sessions and one 45-minute keynote speech per day. In addition to invited speakers, Reed Exhibitions will be welcoming applications for presentation slots in March. The presentation slots are expected to prove very popular and those companies interested in submitting a paper, are advised to email Sarah Sweby (sarah.sweby@reedexpo.co.uk), who will notify them as soon as the online call for papers is live.

In past years The National Incentive Show has successfully co-located with The National Venue Show and The National Direct Marketing Show and has earned a reputation as the most prestigious diary date for the marketing, promotions and incentives industry. The 2005 show will expand this successful policy of co-locating to increase value for exhibitor and visitor alike by the addition of four new shows. The new shows include The Event Services Show, The Live Marketing Show, The Corporate Events Show and The Overseas Meetings & Events Show.

The National Incentive Show is the perfect forum to seek out new products and development, keep abreast of the very latest and forthcoming trends, find practical inspiration and source buyers and suppliers. The inaugural seminar programme and brand new co-located shows are set to ensure that the show continues to grow and meet customer needs, providing a wide range of products and services to generate customers, drive sales and reward employees.

With exhibitors and visitors from across the country, the National Incentive Show offers great networking potential. Visitors include marketing professionals who actively purchase incentives, motivation and promotional marketing products and services. This combination of visitors and wide variety of exhibitors creates a uniquely lively and dynamic atmosphere.
