Podcast: Delivering events at ExCel’s CentrEd conference facility

On this week’s episode of the Event Industry News podcast, host James Dickson welcomes not one but two guests to the show. Zaynab Zubair was tasked with delivering a business conference for the Arriva transport organisation, and James Rees is the Executive Director for conferences and events at ExCeL London. The guests came on the podcast to discuss CentrEd, the dedicated conference facility within the ExCeL Exhibition Centre. Although the venue has always had conferencing facilities available, a major revamp saw them branded with a standalone identity to open new avenues of business. During the episode, Zaynab and James discuss the facilities, the support that is available to organisers, and some of the technical infrastructure that was installed to assist with modern day conference requirements.
