C&IT CORPORATE FORUM

The ultimate productivity hack for senior in-house event planners.

The C&IT Corporate Forum 2026, held at Harbour Hotel Richmond on 8-9 January, brought together senior in-house and corporate event leaders for two highly focused days of insight, collaboration and meaningful connection. 

Designed exclusively for corporate planners, the Forum once again proved why it's one of the most effective ways to plan the year ahead. Attendees achieved months of sourcing and strategy work in just two days through curated 1-2-1 supplier meetings, expert-led content sessions and high-level peer discussions. 

The Corporate Forum continues to attrack some on the UK's most respected corporate brands and event leaders - and demand remains high.
