Partnership formalises recruitment services for event organisers and technology suppliers as industry demand for specialised talent reaches new heights
Event Tech Live, the leading event connecting event technology suppliers with event organisers, today announced a strategic partnership with Expocast, positioning Expocast as the Strategic Recruitment Partner of Event Tech Live. This collaboration addresses the unprecedented demand for specialised professionals across both the event technology supplier ecosystem and event organiser community.
The partnership leverages Event Tech Live’s extensive network of event technology suppliers and organisers with Expocast’s deep recruitment expertise in the events industry. Through this alliance, both event organisers seeking dedicated event technology professionals and suppliers looking to expand their teams will have access to targeted recruitment solutions designed specifically for the event technology sector.
Event Tech Live has seen consistent growth in recruitment requests from across its community, with event organisers increasingly recognising the need for dedicated professionals to manage, deliver, and scope event technology solutions. Simultaneously, the expanding event technology supplier market has created significant demand for experienced professionals who understand both the technical and experiential aspects of events.
“We regularly receive requests from our community – organisers, suppliers, and candidates – all seeking help with recruitment in the event technology space,” said Adam Parry, Co-founder of Event Tech Live. “This partnership with Expocast formalises what has been happening organically and ensures our community receives the dedicated, specialised recruitment expertise they deserve. As the event technology sector continues to grow, having the right people in the right roles becomes critical to success for organisations on both sides of our marketplace.”
The partnership addresses a unique challenge in the event technology recruitment landscape: understanding the nuanced requirements of both event organisers and technology suppliers. Expocast brings specialised knowledge of salary expectations, skill requirements, and career progression paths across both sectors, whilst also maintaining strategic partnerships with key industry organisations including the Association of Event Organisers (AEO).
“The event technology space needs recruiters who truly understand the industry – from the sales, marketing and technical requirements of suppliers, to the operational challenges organisers face when integrating technology into their events, and of course the right strategic leadership across both sides,” said Mike Frost, Founder of Expocast. “Our experience working with both event organisers and technology suppliers gives us unique insight into what makes candidates successful in these roles, whether they’re advancing within their current field or moving between the organiser and supplier sides.”
The recruitment partnership will focus on roles including:
- Senior leadership positions across both sectors
- Sales and business development professionals for event technology suppliers
- Marketing professionals within the event technology space
- Event technology managers and coordinators for event organisers
- Technical specialists and product managers
- Cross-sector opportunities for professionals looking to transition between organiser and supplier roles
Event Tech Live will launch a dedicated careers portal at eventtechlive.com/careers-and-event-technology, providing a central hub for candidates, event organisers, and suppliers to connect with Expocast’s recruitment services. The platform will offer tailored sign-up options for potential candidates, organisers seeking to recruit, and suppliers looking to expand their teams.
This partnership represents Event Tech Live’s commitment to providing comprehensive support to its community beyond traditional event-based networking and education, whilst Expocast continues to expand its specialised focus within the events industry.
