UKIS Engage New Speakers Announced

This year, the UK Infrastructure Show (UKIS) is going online and will be delivered as a live, online interactive event on Wednesday 9 September 2020. The decision was made to move UKIS 2020 into a virtual event as a consequence of COVID-19, taking into consideration the health and wellbeing of all participants and attendees of the event.
Here at UK Construction Online, we are pleased to announce that two new speakers have been confirmed who will be giving talks at the event on Wednesday 9 September 2020.
The first new speaker is Denise Wetton, Commercial and Business Development Director, North West and Central Region at Network Rail. Denise will speak from 11:15-11:45am at the Transport and Logistics Zone.
The second new speaker announced is Nick Wilkinson, Commercial Director at the Defence Infrastructure Organisation (DIO), who’ll be taking to the virtual Live Stage at 12:30-12.40pm, with his speech titled, “Supplying to Defence Infrastructure Organisation”.
Using innovative technology, the new immersive experience will connect the infrastructure and supply chain community, with participants being able to browse valuable content, use chat tools to network with exhibitors. They will also be able to choose and attend their preferred presentations and training sessions. This year’s UKIS is surely an event not to be missed!
UKIS Engage 2020 will also allow participants to join the event from any location they wish via desktop, mobile or other device. This will ensure that delegates can engage with the event on the move. On top of this, participants won’t miss anything as there will also be an option to catch up later via our an-demand option.
More information on what you can expect from this new digital event experience can be found by visiting the UKIS website here.
