Peter Jackson

Eventwise Managing Director - Services, Education Committee

With over 20 years experience in large-scale 'live' and international C&I events, Peter provides an enormous depth and breadth of knowledge as well as a lively creative talent. As Managing Director of concerto:live he is also responsible for all Concerto Group projects that happen outside of the UK.

Peter's background lies with two of the UK's largest and most successful live communication and international C&I agencies (Maritz and The Marketing Organisation now BI) before joining The Concerto Group with a specific remit to create and head-up the concerto:live team, spearheading their ambitious expansion plan for the Concerto Group into the live and international events arenas. He has exceptional leadership skills and always brings a passionate commitment to creativity, professionalism, value and delivering results to all his projects.

Recently elected on the Eventia board, Peter believes that he will bring a lot of energy, innovation, experience and drive and is pleasedto be part of a process which builds overall value in the event management industry in the UK. He has long wished to see the industry move collectively towards the position currently occupied by the advertising industry of delivering a valuable, experience-based service and charging appropriately for it, rather than chasing margin-based business that is often won by the lowest bidder.
