NEC Birmingham gives students taste of events industry with Event Week Live during Crufts

NEC Birmingham has held its most successful Event Week Live to date, welcoming undergraduate students from local universities to its venue for a taster of the live events industry.
The programme saw 28 event management students from Birmingham City University and Coventry University visit campus for an entire week, receiving talks, advice and guidance from a variety of leaders on the NEC campus.
Coinciding with National Careers Week (6th-11th March), Event Week Live gives students an insight into the real workings of an industry leading live events business, during one of the UK's most high-profile exhibitions, Crufts.
This included visiting back of house to see the different and varied roles available within the events industry, as well as a trip to NEC sister venues, Resorts World Arena and Vox Conference Venue, which also feature on campus.
