Other opportunities

A selection of bespoke events we can offer – please contact us for more information on these or any other opportunities of interest

Dinner club

The PPA now offers an exclusive opportunity for businesses to host an evening of dining among influential members of the publishing industry. Our events are designed to aid networking and maximise business development opportunities in a relaxed and sociable setting.

  • Sponsor to host a dinner with up to 10 attendees from specially selected publishers/businesses
  • Two attendees from the sponsor’s company
  • PPA and sponsor to work together to secure guest list

of the dinner
  • Branded invite to be sent out to guest list
  • Follow-up thank-you email to be sent to attendees
  • PPA can circulate any reporting/photos, etc, to the wider membership afterwards if required

Breakfast briefings

The PPA offers co-hosted, bespoke, exclusive events. Along with a speaker from your company, we ask the sponsor to invite a publisher you currently work with to come to the event, so it is as informative as possible for the audience, while getting your message across.

The process for this typically involves:

  1. Topic agreed up front
  2. Target audience to be agreed depending on the topic
  3. Fully marketed to appropriate segment of PPA membership
  4. Event typically held at PPA offices (if required) between 9am and 11am (free to attend for delegates)
  5. Meeting room hire fee and catering costs must be covered by the sponsor

Webinars

The PPA offer firms the chance to run a co-hosted webinar to their publisher network on a topic of their choice.
Topics are co-created with the PPA to maximise engagement.
We have found the most successful events are problem solving and case study led, featuring a publisher you work with already.
Attendee data is supplied to the sponsor before/after the webinar.
