Our Vision & Culture

OUR VISION

We want to be the world’s best and most innovative organiser of large-scale events, powered by game-changing digital media.

Here's how we make that happen:

  • Exhibitors: You’ll see real ROI—no fluff, just results.
  • Visitors: Get ready for an immersive, memorable experience.
  • Learners: Access insights that stick, through our digital media, all year long.

Like the iconic days of Virgin, stepping into a Nineteen show or HQ—anywhere in the world—instantly feels like entering a space of excellence. You can just sense it.

OUR CULTURE

Culture is at the heart of everything we do at Nineteen. We're a place where disruption is celebrated, failure becomes learning, and growth happens through bold risks.

We laugh, learn, fail, and share, never stopping to challenge ourselves to be better. (We also like making people smile along the way!)

Skip the formalities. If your decision reflects our KADI values (Kind, Agile, Driven, Inclusive), just go for it!
