Smart Classes
Smart Classes are half-day, knowledge exchange and lead generation events. Uniquely, they give strictly buyer side stakeholders the opportunity to find out exactly how they can deploy the latest digital technology-enabled solutions, data-driven strategies and best practices to tackle the challenges faced by aspiring smart cities, regions and communities, public service providers and critical infrastructure operators.
Our tried-and-tested format is built around thought-leadership presentations from innovators, in-depth roundtable discussions hosted by the innovator’s teams of experts, and insightful keynotes delivered by inspirational role models. There are further networking opportunities over breakfast, drinks and lunch buffet and we create a warm event environment (often at characterful, out-of-the-box venues) to keep our carefully curated audiences fully engaged. Smart Classes ensure that technology disruptors really can inform, consult and collaborate with the city-regions and key sector leads.

Smart Class Innovation Sponsorship Packages
We’re able to accommodate up to 5 innovators or solution vendors per Smart Class in an “Innovation Sponsor” capacity. This opportunity is also available to organisations who source or advise on digital technology-enabled solutions, data driven insights and smart best practices that can play a key role in helping our buyer side delegates address their transport and mobility, emissions and air quality, waste management, public realm, energy, water management or healthcare challenges.
Each sponsor represents a priority innovation topic (and associated area of application) in an initial thought leadership presentation delivered by their speaker and deeper-dive roundtable consultations, hosted by their teams of experts, with the delegates.
Innovation sponsors also benefit from considerable post-event exposure, unrivalled lead generation services, promotion across our social media channels, blog or article opportunities on the Smart Classes “Knowledge Base”, logo branding (online and onscreen), and more! Check out the Event Sponsorship page on our website for full details and to view a selection of testimonials from previous Smart Class sponsors. Here’s additional feedback from some of our delegates!
The regular cost of an Innovation Sponsorship Package is £6,950 per Smart Class. However, we’re currently offering a limited number of discounted options (e.g. for “Early Bird” bookings, “Series” commitments, start-up innovators or innovators representing certain “Prioritised” topics) so contact us here to see if you qualify for a concessionary rate!
