What do our audience expect from the talks?
It’s generally a sophisticated audience with a high proportion of experienced practitioners looking for practical takeaways, alongside deeper, more cerebral inputs.
Great speakers! I’m already researching into some of their practices to implement into our team.

UX Brighton gave a us space and time to think and reflect on what we do, how we do it and why we do it - it ticked all 3 boxes in a big way!

I learned something new from every speaker.

What kind of jobs do they do?
Whilst there is a high percentage of designers (46%), our audience attracts people with a wide variety of job titles, including developers, CEO/Manager/Founder, product and project managers.
What kind of companies/organisations do they come from?
What is the gender split?
Our audience is 32% female, 68% male – more than double the 15% industry norm for women.
You will need to bring your laptop and monitor adaptors - don’t forget your charger too!
There will be Wifi at the venue, however we would suggest that you don’t rely on accessing the internet for your presentation.
You can embed audio within your slides if necessary.
Preferred format for your slides is 16:9 (widescreen).
There will be a lectern to present from but you will have a wireless lapel mic so you are free to roam the stage if you want to.
We don’t require your decks beforehand, however we do like to make them available to delegates after the event.
Travel & hotel
We recommend that you travel to Brighton by public transport as parking is notoriously hard to come by, and there is no parking at the venue.
If you are driving, the nearest NCP carpark is Brighton Theatre on Church Street: https://www.ncp.co.uk/find-a-car-park/car-parks/brighton-theatre/
Standard travel costs are reimbursed after the event, on production of receipts.
We book you a double room, including breakfast, on Thursday night at a central hotel in Brighton.
Speaker meal & lunch
We arrange a meal for all speakers on Thursday evening. In previous years we’ve had a Michelin starred chef cook for us at a private dining space, close to the hotel.
On conference day, we invite all speakers to attend the whole day if possible. We also take you out for lunch at a restaurant close to the venue.
