Top 5 Conference Venues

As staff return to work and companies wish to re-engage, here are some of the most popular conference venues in London right now.

As lockdown measures continue to ease and people are returning to the office, many companies are keen to re-engage with staff after a difficult year. Internal meetings and conference are proving extremely popular and offer an opportunity to re-group with employees. Whether a company has maintained ‘life as normal’ throughout the pandemic or struggled to weather the storm, bringing employees together for AGMs or internal meetings offers a fantastic opportunity to educate staff on the company message and move forward in a post-Covid-19 world! With this in mind, we have collected some of our favourite venues perfect to host a conference or daytime event.

Illuminate at the Science Museum

South Kensington, West London

The first, Illuminate at the Science Museum, is a hugely diverse space and can host a large variety of conferences. Split over two floors, Level 5 offers a light and bright breakout and lunch space perfect to re-energise guests in-between plenaries. The exceptional view looking over London offer a fantastic talking point to encourage guests to network. In contrast, Level 4 is much more intimate and is perfect for content heavy sessions.
