Bespoke events

Networking dinners

We offer businesses a unique opportunity to host an evening with some of the most influential voices in media and publishing. These events are designed with networking and business development in mind, taking place in a relaxed and sociable setting. 

Through the PPA’s extensive member network, we can deliver an audience that aligns with your specific target customer profile. These intimate events allow you to meet the right senior individuals, opening doors to potential collaborations and partnerships.

Breakfast briefings

These take place at our central London offices, typically between 9-11 am. We work closely with sponsors to determine the topic, content, and speakers for each briefing, ensuring relevance and value for both you and our attendees.

These briefings usually attract 15-20 publishers, providing an opportunity to discuss industry topics with a relevant and engaged audience. Our experience has shown that sessions focused on problem-solving and featuring case studies with existing publishers are often the most successful.

Webinars

Our co-hosted webinars allow businesses to share knowledge and best practices with the specialist media sector. We co-create topics to ensure relevance and value for commercial partners and attendees. Again, our experience has shown that webinars focused on problem-solving and featuring case studies with existing publishers are often the most successful.
