Listex Returns To The Snow Centre This October

With the UK governments announcement that business events and conferences can restart from October 1 2020, organisers are working closely with the venue, the Snow Centre, to bring you LISTEX as a live event on October 6 & 7 2020. 

As your safety is a primary concern, they will be introducing several measures at LISTEX this year to ensure social distancing can be maintained including:

- Maximum of 5 buyer desks per meeting room

- Maximum of 50 attendees in the forum theatre at any one time

- Suppliers will take part in meetings as part of either a morning or afternoon group, forum content will be repeated from the morning in the afternoon, so all attendees will be able to attend all forum sessions this year.

- Meetings will be 15 minutes in length with up to 16 appointments available each day.

Due to these restrictions total attendees will be limited to 100 per day.

Limited spaces remain, to confirm your place register here now on MTN

Since the situation with quarantine and international travel restrictions remains uncertain, if you are unable to attend LISTEX this year you can transfer your booking in full to one of the 2021 events or obtain a full refund.

LISTEX WINTER EXCHANGE FORUM: RECOVERY

There was only one choice of possible theme for this years event, our routes to recovery as an industry, both short and long term.

LISTEX 2020 Forum sessions will bring together expert speakers and industry leaders to dive into those key topics that will shape that recovery, including:

  • State of the snowsports market
  • Where will our customers come from this season, and beyond?
  • Developing a marketing strategy for challenging times
  • Shaping the season, what could the winter ahead look like?
  • What parts of the ski holiday experience are gone forever, and what might replace them?
  • In transition, a look ahead to Brexit in 2021
  • Facing the future, sustainability and crisis recovery
  • The decade ahead, the forces that will shape our industry
