Rachel Gregory
Diversified Communications, Sales Manager
“Rachel sees the exhibition industry as one that she will be
working in for the rest of her career. Her passion is to one day have
the opportunity to speak and present and share her knowledge
and experience within the events industry. She is a natural at
networking, as well as building and developing relationships,
whether it is within her own industry or the sector she works in.”
In five years’ time: I see myself as being a role model in the
events and sales field, running seminars and training courses that
will inspire the young and hungry. The next step for progression will
be event manager or event director, heading of a team of four or
more and I will have launched an international show.
Bethany Heath

Upper Street Events, Exhibition Manager
“Beth works on the New Designers exhibition, which unites the designers of
tomorrow with the trade, trend-spotters and industry leaders of today. She oversees
the shows exhibitors through the sales, account management and exhibitor
communications. Beth’s invaluable skill set ensures the longevity, growth and success
of the event. She has an incredible work ethic and strives to deliver the highest
customer service and account management.”
In five years’ time: I hope to continue to work alongside an innovative and
determined team to deliver events that bring all levels of the design industry together
and ensure that the industry continues to thrive.
Mitchell Ingram
CloserStill Media, Show Manager
“When Alex, the ED for the British Dentistry Show, was expecting
her second child, Mitchell was the obvious choice to cover her
maternity leave. With a young and inexperienced team below
Mitchell this meant we needed to fast-track his development. He
was quite literally a knowledge sponge and instantly made the
transition from salesman to brand custodian. Working with Mitchell
is an absolute pleasure, if I could clone him, I would!”
In five years’ time: I’ve never have had a five-year-plan. I instead
like to think opportunities will come my way if I show I’m hard-
working and motivated, and so far that’s proved true.
