UK - This year’s PLASA Show (7-9 September, Olympia, London) will debut a new Careers and Networking Hub, which the show’s organisers say is set to be “a vibrant, inclusive space designed to support early-career professionals, apprentices, students, and anyone seeking their next step in the live entertainment and events industry”.
A collaboration between PLASA, The Power of Events, Production Futures, and Access Industry, the hub will feature: speed networking sessions with top industry professionals; professional development support, including CV and LinkedIn reviews and free headshots (limited availability); live talks and panel sessions exploring careers and opportunities in live events; and a welcoming lounge space with comfortable seating and coffee, open to all ages and experience levels.
Apprentice ambassadors from Access Industry will be on hand to offer real-world insights, and several employers are already lined up to take part in networking sessions across the show.
“With a focus on accessibility, engagement, and community, the Careers and Networking Hub reflects a collective commitment to building a sustainable talent pipeline while breaking down barriers to entry,” says PLASA.
Further details, including session timings and participating organisations, will be announced soon via the show’s website and social channels.
