UFI Next Generation Leadership Grant
2025 Theme: Redefining exhibition formats
The 2025 programme mission is to explore innovative and unconventional formats to inspire the next evolution of event models.
This theme will be developed and refined throughout the programme via group calls, discussions with industry leaders, support from the UFI team, and an in-person workshop at the UFI European Conference, taking place from 3–7 June in Thessaloniki, Greece.
Participants will engage in a seven-month-long project alongside peers from around the world, starting in May 2025 and culminating in a group presentation at the UFI Global Congress in Hong Kong SAR in November 2025.
