A Message from Leadership
Dear Nineteeners,
Back in early 2019, Alison may remember one of our first NineteenXchange presentations. Then called 'Town Hall' (yuck!)
The vision announced was to build one of the best major events businesses in the world, with a £100m turnover. We were at £5m that year!
We've done it! 🙌 That is down to the seriously talented people who have joined this journey.
So… Vision 2.0 is coming.
Today, we are 350 people across five global HQs. So we will unite and set the instruments for our next altitude. Ambitious, pushing boundaries, and full of opportunity for everyone inside Nineteen to grow and progress.
More coming! 🚀
For now, I'm having a small moment.
Four major-scale shows in two weeks. There was a time when the whole year revolved around one show, two days. How far we've come.
Thank you,
Peter Jones
Group CEO

On 22nd April, the world came together to celebrate Earth Day, an initiative that serves as a reminder to care for our planet, while raising awareness of the more sustainable practices and habits we can all adopt to help achieve a net-zero future.
Each year, we work with ecollectivecarbon to measure the full impact of our business and events across the entire value chain. This year, the results tell an honest and encouraging story.
We are proud to share that the carbon efficiency of our events has improved significantly. The average footprint per attendee fell 19%, from 195 to 158 kg CO₂e, and the average footprint per event fell 20%, from 1,856 to 1,481 tonnes CO₂e. Visitor travel was one of the main driving factors behind this reduction, as more delegates took advantage of public transport through our partnership scheme with Avanti West Coast.

Showing Support for our Veterans at CVS!
But that's not all! At this year's Commercial Vehicle Show, Nineteen was proud to publicly sign the Armed Forces Covenant alongside Samsara and Hewland Engineering Limited. Hosted by Mission Community and supported by the UK Ministry of Defence, Group Event Director Nick Davison took to the stage on behalf of Nineteen to make a public pledge of support for Service Leavers, Reservists, Veterans, Cadets, and their families.
Women in Transport Partners with Commercial Vehicle Show's 'Driven By Her' Programme
Women in Transport has been announced as the official Chair and sponsor of Driven By Her, part of the Commercial Vehicle Show's new ambassador programme, Celebrating Every Journey.
Led by Sarah Buzzato, the initiative champions diversity, inclusion, and future talent across the road transport sector, with Driven By Her specifically addressing the barriers women face when entering, progressing within, and remaining in the industry.

As the UK's leading not-for-profit dedicated to empowering women in transport, Women in Transport has grown into one of the sector's most influential voices, driving change through mentoring, networking, advocacy, and research, and helping more women build successful careers across the industry.
The debut Celebrating Every Journey sessions proved a real highlight, with strong audience turnout and standing-room-only crowds gathering at the Future Fleet Arena on day three! Congrats to the team for championing such a fantastic cause!

Bus & Coach Show
The Bus & Coach Expo 2026 arrived with real impact.
A bustling show floor, live vehicles, and a ride & drive experience created an energy that ran through the entire event.
UK launches drew the crowds, the Leaders Forum sparked meaningful conversation, and by the end, it was clear: this wasn't just a promising debut, it was a statement of intent.

Nineteen is proud to be the first official sponsor to support such a worthy cause and hopes that using such an incredible platform like The Safety & Security Series will inspire many more organisations to follow suit and dig deep.
We look forward to working with Dawn and the wider SOS network on promoting further awareness and education across our portfolio of global events! Scan the QR code to find out more about the Stamp Out Spiking campaign!

We learned about AP, payroll, management accounts, and even got a sneak peek at some very exciting long-term growth plans. Oh, and a special shoutout to the real MVP, Ol' Faithful Celeste the printer, keeping it together through every invoice and statement.
To top it all off, they wrapped up with the BIG FAT FINANCE QUIZ, where lucky winner Ollie Kaye took home a chocolate calculator. Who knew finance could be so delicious!?

But it's not only the interior that's getting a sprinkle of Nineteen magic! 🪄✨
Nick has been busy with all things branding, making sure our new office is loudly and PROUDLY shouting who we are and what we do!
Teaming up with the lovely lot at Oktra, Nick designed vinyl wrapping across the interior and exterior windows at Wimbledon Quarter, letting everyone in the local area know that Nineteen ARE MOVING IN. Consider it a very stylish heads up.
The visuals turned out better than we could have hoped, and the best part? Visitors can take a virtual tour of our new HQ with a simple scan of a QR code. First impressions, nailed.

Great ideas are powered by even greater food, so after a hard day of strategy, the team headed out for a much-needed refuel at dinner! 😋
Bellies full, the team headed home re-energised, aligned, and ready to hit the ground running by bringing the Americas our FIRST Smart Manufacturing Week! 💪
We're definitely buying what they're selling!
Three shows, Two weeks, OneNineteen 💪✨
We are heading into a busy stretch with three events over the course of two weeks: SubSummit (13-15 May in Kansas City, Kansas), The RELIABILITY Conference (19-21 May in San Francisco, California), and The Lead Summit ( 20-21 May in New York City, New York).
There’s a lot of coordination happening behind the scenes, a strong reflection of the pace we’re operating at.
Let's gooooo, Nineteen Americas! 📣

Building Sydney Build and SMASHING Records!!
The energy across every inch of the show was electric, buzzing with thousands of attendees and exhibitors networking, pumping music, and some cracking entertainment! (Just don't feed the gulls...🐥😂)
Every conference stage was bursting at the seams, celebrating the highest number of government and ministerial speakers at a Build Expo! And to top it all off, our show got official endorsement from Chris Minns, Premier of New South Wales! 🍒✨

It's been a busy week in the Hong Kong office, and we've been delighted to welcome back two familiar faces in Gigi and Steph, as well as Felix, who is visiting Hong Kong for the first time. Busy behind the scenes with Sydney Build preparation, the team is in full swing and pulling together brilliantly. There's a real sense of momentum building, and all signs point to a fantastic show*.
(*Editor's note: CAN CONFIRM IT WAS A FANTASTIC SHOW)

The End of an Era! Saying Goodbye to Selena!
Last Thursday, the Oliver Kinross team headed to Do Not Disturb to give the one and only Selena Moseley a send-off in proper style!
After more than 15 years working on the Oliver Kinross Build Expos, Selena nurtured them with her expertise and industry knowledge, helping grow them into the MASSIVE events they are today. 🚀
)
A little Reflection from Selena...
"My events journey began in 2011 when I joined Oliver Kinross as an Office Assistant. My first task was getting a kitchen built. Little did I know that moment would shape the next 15 years of my life.
What started as a simple role grew into something much bigger. I immersed myself in operations, production, and marketing, eventually moving into Head of Production and then Head of Marketing & Production, helping build teams, shape departments, and take the company global.

Accelerating Speaker Recruitment in April 🏎️💨✨
The team over in the Sales and Marketing department has seriously put the pedal to the metal, shifting into fifth gear, and driving a winning recruitment strategy that had us waving the checkered flag! 🏁
This ingenious initiative has elevated the value proposition for potential exhibitors by offering coveted speaking slots at panel sessions and valuable airtime on the Emergency Services Show Asia's InnoTech Stage. 🙌
A brilliant opportunity for exhibitors to shine in the spotlight and get their message in front of a wider, engaged audience! 🌟
Team Singapore Brings Some Sunshine to the UK 🌞✨
Watch out Wimbledon, the Singapore office has landed!
Some of our favourite faces from the APAC Office have touched down at HQ ahead of this week's Safety and Security Show, where they're set up and spreading the word about The Safety and Security Event Asia, coming to Marina Bay Sands in November. Consider yourselves warned.
They've been busy ticking off the full UK experience, catching up with fellow Nineteeners, getting the grand tour of Wimbledon HQ, and presumably questioning why we think this weather is acceptable. But the real news? Team Singapore have brought the sunshine with them.
April Baby in Full Bloom 🌷✨
Celebrating our April baby, Ariel, in the best way possible! 🥳💐
With a delicious cake and a couple (?) bottles of wine! 🍷
Just like spring itself, Ariel has a way of bringing colour, warmth, and life to everything around her. Often found in floral prints and known to be quite green-thumbed, Ariel always shows plenty of love and care to her thriving flora, as well as to her fellow Nineteeners! 🩵
Happy Birthday, Ariel! We're raising a glass to you in celebration of your special day! 🥂

PA@TheCity April
PA@TheCity returned in April 2026 with a fantastic evening in London, bringing a real sense of energy as members and non-members of The Payments Association came together to connect, share ideas, and explore new opportunities. The team was actively engaged throughout, spending time with members and helping to keep conversations flowing across the room.
A highlight of the evening was a fireside chat with Charlotte Crosswell, discussing the PAY360 Awards and the future of payments innovation, offering valuable insights for attendees.

TP-Away Day!
The team came together in London for a brilliant Away Day, packed with energy, great conversations, and some well-earned downtime. The day kicked off at the Park Hyatt London River Thames, where Tony and Emma delivered engaging presentations alongside the SLT, sharing priorities and ambitions for the year ahead in an open, collaborative way that really landed with the team.
After a gorgeous team lunch, everyone headed to Bridge Command for a fun, sci-fi themed challenge that put teamwork and communication to the test.
The day wrapped up with sunset drinks by the river, giving everyone the chance to unwind, connect, and strengthen relationships across the team.

James has got some SERIOUS SOLE! 👟 ✨
Earlier this month, James Hurren, Data Journalist, took part in a 24-hour relay run in support of Pad Up, helping to raise over £5,000, more than double their original fundraising target. Across four teams, participants ran continuously, covering an impressive 930km, the equivalent of travelling from London to Berlin.
James contributed a remarkable 45km during his four-hour stint, an effort he admits he is still feeling! The funds raised will support Pad Up’s vital work tackling period poverty in Kenya, providing essential products, education, and support to help keep girls in school and improve long term health outcomes.

Easter Bunny Brings Treats for the Team!
At the start of April, we had an EGG-stra special visitor at Nineteen HQ... none other than the Easter Bunny! 🐣
Armed with a wicker basket full of chocolatey goodness, our favourite festive friend had the Nineteeners hopping with joy just ahead of the long Easter weekend.
We hope everyone who celebrates had a truly CRACKING Easter, and that a little Spring magic helped fuel you going into a busy show season!
Now, show of hands... who still has some Easter chocolate left? 🍫
Huge Congrats to Eliza: He Liked It and He Put a Ring On It!
Please join us in sending the BIGGEST congratulations to Eliza and James, who are officially engaged to be married! 🎉
Let us set the scene... During a recent trip home to Australia, the two took a stroll along their favourite Melbourne beach! That's when James got down on one knee and asked Eliza to be his wife. Safe to say, this particular Good Friday became a GREAT Friday! 💍
We are absolutely thrilled for you both. Congratulations, Eliza and James!
