itSMF UK Celebrates its 21st Birthday

itSMF UK, the UK’s largest service management user group, has announced that its flagship annual event, the itSMF UK Conference and Awards Dinner, will take place at the Novotel London West on 5th and 6th November 2012. The itSMFUKwill be celebrating its 21st birthday, so visitors, sponsors and exhibitors can expect a bigger and better event than ever before as the itSMFUKcelebrates its milestone birthday!

The itSMF UK Conference and Exhibition is the world’s leading annual event for IT Service Management professionals, offering education and networking opportunities along with its highly popular annual awards dinner. The event mixes inspirational plenary sessions with specialist breakout groups and educational presentations on a broad range of ITSM-related topics, and delegates can choose from around 40 different sessions to tailor the day specifically to their needs. Last year saw a truly inspiring opening keynote from Dame Tanni Grey-Thompson, and the Awards Dinner was hosted by the legendary Lenny Henry so visitors can expect some more fantastic names for 2012.

One of the highlights of the 2011 Conference was its buzzing exhibition space and this will be back in 2012, with exhibitor spaces available from just £285 per square metre. Exhibiting at the conference provides unique access to a targeted audience of service management professionals, an audience that is growing year on year. 2010 saw 753 Service Management professionals pass through the conference doors, while 2011 welcomed 913 and the organisation expects even higher numbers for this year’s event. It is therefore a great way to meet with end users, customers and prospects face to face.

There are some fantastic platinum, gold, silver and awards sponsorship packages available for those wishing to leverage the itSMF UK’s wide membership base. For full details, download our sponsorship guide at www.itsmf.co.uk/Sponsorguide.

Delegate places are also available now, at early bird rates until the end of May. There are a range of different options available, from a one-day exhibition-only pass right the way up to full packages which include the awards dinner.
