The summit is the first mass-participation live event to take place since the pandemic, heralding the long awaited return to live events.
Michael Gietzen, managing director for Identity, said, “This will be the largest multilateral summit that the UK will host following its departure from the EU and, indeed, the UK’s first international in-person event since the pandemic lock-down.”
Janet Dodd, director of live events at Identity, said, “We are honoured to have been chosen and trusted to deliver this very important and prestigious event. Once again Identity will be able to showcase its expertise in the smooth execution of a major, high-profile international event.
