Notice Information

Notice Title

031-0621T Hybrid Conference & Other Events Framework

Notice Description

Agri-EPI Centre is conducting a procurement exercise on behalf of itself and the 3 other sister Agri-Tech organisations, to appoint bidder(s) to its framework for an immediate requirement of a hybrid conference event in November 2021 and subsequent events as required. Recognising the potential benefits of showcasing the four Centres at a high-profile event such as COP26, it has been decided to extend this to include a day-time conference to run alongside the main COP26 event. This will take place irrespective of whether COP26 takes place (recognising potential Covid-19 restrictions). Therefore, we would like to receive bids from suitably qualified and experienced providers for the organisation and delivery of the November 2021 on and offline conference-type event and potentially future ones as and when required. ITT documents are only available from the following website: www.ne1procurementservices.com Additional information: The ITT documents can only be obtained from the following website: www.ne1procurementservices.com
