The C&IT Agency Forum returns for 2027!

Two days. One room. The conversations agencies can’t afford to miss.

Escape the reactive rush of day-to-day agency life and step into highly focused, commercially driven conversations designed to put you face-to-face with key decision-makers.

Across two structured days, the C&IT Agency Forum will help give you a deeper understanding of what's actually shaping the industry, whilst creating very real opportunities to build relationships and drive collaboration through 1-2-1 meetings with the senior leaders that matter most to you.

With last year's forum being in the sunny seaside city of Brighton, we've decided to shake things up by relocating to London - a city best known for multiculturalism and creativity. Not only being the UK's most well-connected location - so you wont have to worry about travel - it's also home to some of the world's best experiences, making it the best possible location to help break the ice with new contacts.

Register your interest now to be first to hear when applications open for 2027.


"C&IT Agency Forum 2025 panel sessions were so insightful this year, I took so much away from those discussions and couldn't wait to share my feedback with the team at AOK Events"

WHY THIS FORUM IS DIFFERENT


MEET THE RIGHT PEOPLE - NOT JUST MORE PEOPLE

The C&IT Agency Forum is designed for senior agency decision-makers. Every conversations is with someone who influences budgets, suppliers and strategy.

IT'S BUILT AROUND OUTCOMES, NOT ATTENDANCE

Instead of wandering between sessions, you get a personal diary of pre-scheduled 1-2-1 meetings with hand-picked suppliers matched to your real briefs.

THE EXPERIENCE DOES THE HEAVY LIFTING

From the seaside setting in Brighton to stand out dinners and space to think, everything is designed to slow the pace and deepen the conversation.
