Simon Howard Introducing… your ideas, your speakers and your messages in more interesting and memorable ways. Simon has over 15 years experience hosting live events and has done everything from full conference compering, to gala dinners, award ceremonies, teambuilding, networking, charity auctions, comedy nights and much more.

In March 2020 Simon Howard Introducing hit the virtual stage and as well as running full virtual conferences, awards ceremonies and networking sessions. We have created a range of interactive virtual experiences including gameshows you actually get to play (not just watch), interactive race nights, custom written murder mysteries, team building activities and custom/ bespoke virtual experiences to meet client briefs.

Sheila Smith
Born from the love of helping to connect people, and to see all businesses do more business, Sheila started a local networking group in 2010 which ran for 10 years.

Soon after she started the networking group, her many business contacts encouraged her to hold a Northamptonshire Business Expo and that’s where it all began.

Sheila is running several Expos now, including the latest addition of Leicester Business Expo, and in response to the restrictions brought about by the coronavirus pandemic, she has re-invented the Expo online.

In close collaboration with the team at Big Media, Sheila brought her knowledge of event organisation and management to bear, and helped steer the initial development of the brand new state-of-the-art software that has become the Virtual Expo platform.

Now that live events look set to re-emerge, Sheila is leveraging the knowledge gained in running virtual events to launch hybrid (live + virtual) events to maximise the advantages of both.

A truly inspirational person, she thrives on seeing other people connect and win the day!
