The aim of activity undertaken at MIPIM 2023 will: Secure inward investment to the West Midlands Build awareness of the West Midlands proposition and projects being a key catalyst for investor engagement and conversion Capitalise on the enhanced profile and perception change work enabled through the BATP. The West Midlands Growth Company will use MIPIM 2023 to: Raise the profile of the West Midlands region and the associated local authorities and combined authority with international investors, end users and suppliers Increase media coverage for the region and its constituent destinations Demonstrate the region's credentials as a place to do business Highlight the region's ability to attract and support investors Generate potential investment prospects Develop relationships into projects that will create private sector jobs Showcase specific development projects and create the platform for their promotion by our West Midlands Commercial Partners and our public sector shareholders. The project is seeking to appoint an organisation who can provide event production support, stand building, and AV prior to, during and post the West Midlands' attendance at MIPIM 2023.

Procurement Information
West Midlands Growth Company did not receive approval for the MIPIM project until October 2022 whereas work would normally begin for this project in May of the year preceding the event. The services required involved event management, stand design and building and event support, lotting was not seen as a viable option as this would have meant WMGC managing multiple stakeholders and lacked the resource to do this effectively. We required a supplier who was had capacity and capability to deliver this contract in an unusually short time frame with the event scheduled to take place mid-March 2023. We also required the supplier to essentially bankroll significant parts of the project (passes etc), a number of suppliers require up-front payment for this and stand building which WMGC are unable to accommodate due to the funding model. The time taken to run even an accelerated process would have severely impacted on the delivery of this project as it would likely have meant that work was unlikely to start in earnest until January (leaving around 10 weeks to the event).
