The mentoring meet-up: next gen voices take the mic - Part 02: Speed Mentoring

25 Jun 2026
Stage One
Leadership & Professional Development

After the panel discussion anyone interested in securing a speed mentoring conversation should speak to our onsite support Hayley. She will allocate the available mentoring appointments with our Fast Forward 15 mentors. These are highly sought after mentoring opportunities with senior leaders from across the events industry and there are only eight mentoring slots available, so we encourage you to register your interest early in this session!


Our Speed Mentors
1. Joy Thomas, Director of Global Events, IQVIA
2. Lucy Nicholls, Founder and Creative Director, The PS Events Group
3. Debra Nightingale, Director and Owner, All Bright Communications
4. Richard Bridge, Consultant and Founder, Top Banana
5. Bernice Heard, National Sales Director, UK & Ireland, Hyatt Hotels
6. Kathryn Williams, Director of Sales, Corrigan Collection
7. Fay Sharpe, Founder, Fast Forward 15
8. Sammy Connell, Head of Events, The Teachers’ Union

After the 20-minute mentoring conversations conclude, we will come back together
for a short close to the session before departing with new connections, fresh ideas
and practical actions to take forward.
