• Continue to support the business events sector through its post pandemic recovery, working with partners to highlight specific issues and opportunities and to develop new ways of working.

• Develop a plan to quickly adopt the new sector specific SIC/SOC codes to support clearer identification of the organisations that work within business meetings and events and to improve the collection and quality of relevant data.
