We’re excited to be part of this year’s EN Indy Expo & Awards, taking place on Friday 17 October 2025, for a full day celebrating the creativity, resilience and innovation of the independent exhibition sector.

From what promises to be an insightful day of discussion and learnings at the Business Design Centre to a night of celebration for the awards at the QEII Centre, the EN Indy's is where passionate voices in the industry come together - and we’re proud to be right in the middle of it.

ASP Head of Performance, Jon Monk, will be hosting a panel discussion titled: “Beyond the Event: Building Year-Round Communities Through Strategic Digital Marketing.”

Joining Jon on stage will be:

• Tom McMahon, CEO at MCM

• Georgie Sloggett, Marketing Director at Montgomery Group

Together, they’ll explore how event organisers can evolve their websites and digital strategies to build thriving 365-day communities. 

Expect practical insights on:

• Turning your event website into a community hub that drives engagement year-round

• Maximising off-season marketing through paid media on platforms like TikTok and Spotify

• Creating integrated digital ecosystems that align email, social and performance campaigns

• Real-world success stories from independent organisers who’ve nailed long-term digital growth

If you’re looking to build consistent engagement, attract new audiences and transform your event’s digital presence into a lasting community asset - this session is for you.

• Session Time: 2pm
• Location: AI & Data Hub
   

This year, we're delighted to sponsor the Best Indy Marketing Team Award, recognising the teams whose creativity and strategic thinking have made a real impact across the independent exhibition landscape.

Throughout the day, the ASP team will be on Stand 60 at the Business Design Centre, ready to talk all things event websites, performance and integrations.

Independent organisers are the backbone of the exhibition industry - agile, creative, and bold in their ambitions.

Here at ASP, we’re proud to support this community. From powering high-performing websites to championing smarter digital strategies, our mission aligns with the very essence of the Indy movement - independence, innovation, and impact.
