Conference Ambassador Programme
Great minds like a think in Birmingham. When the world comes to town, we’re here to help. And our Ambassadors are key players in making it all possible.
Members of the academic and professional services communities in Birmingham can add incredible value to our city’s economy by encouraging their professional associations and societies to discover us.
We’re now seeking real Ambassadors for our city that can make the most of their connections (and influence) by bringing their peers here. And, naturally, in return, we make world class events look easy.
Help is on hand. The Birmingham Convention Bureau is here to offer practical support to help our Ambassadors with everything they need to make Birmingham the home of their next major event. So much so that we now have dedicated Ambassadors across the academic community. But don’t take our word for it:
For over a century, University of Birmingham academics have been roving
global ambassadors for this city. My colleagues and I are delighted
that our skills and connections can now be harnessed through this
imaginative scheme to ensure that in return, the world comes to
Birmingham.
Professor Michael Clarke, Vice-Principal of the University of Birmingham
We have no doubt that the Conference Ambassador Programme will continue
to build on the already strong links between the academic community and
the city and enhance Birmingham's national and international profile as
a dynamic city of learning and innovation.
Professor Graham Hooley, Senior Pro-Vice Chancellor, Aston University
Delivering high quality conferences and providing the supporting
hospitality can be a daunting prospect. The range of support provided
matches many of the challenges we have identified in developing
international programmes.
