The ’15 Minutes of Fame’ sessions are the chance for exhibitors to showcase what it is that they do, whether that be their organisation or business itself, a project they’re undertaking, or even a product that helps promote or deliver a greater level of sustainability around the region. It’s their chance to get their message out.

The sessions will take place during the afternoon of the East Midlands EXPO and will be introduced and managed by a facilitator, who will provide feedback and provoke discussion to the audience throughout the afternoon.

Each talk will take place at a table seating around 10-12 delegates. We are looking to have several tables in use at any one time, with 4 sessions throughout the afternoon. If a presenter is only taking part in one session then anyone who wants to hear from that presenter will have to make that their priority.

How do I reserve my place?

To reserve a place at one of the presentation tables delegates must:

   1.  Decide which presentation(s) they want to see

   2.  Come to the help desk on the day and pick up a colour-coded ticket. This will gain you access

        to the session that your selected presentation is taking place in and reserve you a seat at your

        table of choice.

Some presenters will only be taking part in certain sessions, so its important to view the information either here or at the help desk on the day. Once the slots are full, they are full!

Who's taking part?

Outlines and further details about those organisations and businesess that will be taking part can be found below. These details will be added to as more presenters are confirmed.
