Flashes & Flames this week announces the return of Monetising B2B Information & Events in 2026. The one-day conference this year was a sell-out programme of industry leaders sharing their insights on B2B innovation, creativity and profitability across the world.
The 2026 event will take place on Wednesday 13 May, at London’s historic Stationers’ Hall. While it is still almost 170 days to go, the first 14 speakers have been announced, including:
Kevin Costello, CEO, Haymarket Media Group
Simon Foster, Founder-CEO, Arc Network
Charlie Teviot (Kerr), Founder, With Intelligence
Mark Shashoua, CEO, Hyve Group
Dean Curtis, CEO, LexisNexis Risk Data Services (RELX)
Douglas Emslie, chair, Raccoon Events and deputy chair, Jacobs Media
Trevor Fenwick, Executive Chair/ co-founder, Euromonitor
Paul Miller, CEO, Questex LLC
Natasha Christie-Miller, chair, Sift EU
Alison Jackson, Group md, Nineteen Group
Alex Roth, Group Strategy Director, Informa Plc
Ray Bloom, Chair-founder, IMEX Exhibitions
Carina Bauer, CEO, IMEX Exhibitions
Rory Brown, co-founder, AgriBriefing
Further speakers from across Europe and the US will be disclosed during the next few months. But Colin Morrison, founder of Flashes & Flames, says the event will follow the pattern largely established both by Monetising B2B 2025 and by this week’s Definitive AI Forum:
- A programme of fireside chats and panel discussions. No formal speeches
- A pre-event eBook, with background reading and case studies
- Near live transcripts of every session and post-event audio
- Messaging and meeting apps for delegates before, during and after the event
- MediaVoices MasterClasses with expert tutors
- A capacity of 200, to enhance engagement and networking
Colin Morrison says: “2026 will be a special year for Flashes & Flames Media because both Flashes & Flames and MediaVoices are celebrating their 10th anniversaries during the year. We’ll be celebrating, as you might expect, by expanding our text, audio content and events. Monetising B2B 2026 has already attracted a large number of industry leaders and there’s plenty more to come. But we’ll also be making the event even more effective for delegates by investing in systems to enhance the transcripts, recordings, messaging and meetings apps.
“Monetising B2B and The Definitive AI Forum in 2025 were the first Flashes & Flames live events and both were soldout well ahead of time. Despite that, we are sticking with our historic venue, Stationers’ Hall (with its capacity of 200 people) because it’s an atmosphere and scale that helps people make the most of their opportunities to network and engage with speakers, demonstrations and masterclasses. We are working hard to make Monetising B2B even more compelling for delegates,”
