The bit about us

We're Hyve, a global events company that does things differently.

Our events deliver game-changing impact for people, businesses and beyond. That might mean winning a major

contract, securing transformational investment, getting on the shelves of a giant retailer or hearing from thought leaders who are changing the future. The purpose of every one of our events is to bring the people who power major industries together – and open a world of potential.

At the same time, we're using our events as platforms for progress, to drive the conversation across the world's biggest industries on crucial topics like sustainability, diversity and ethical business.

These moments can change lives. And making those connections motivates us every single day.

But creating those human connections doesn't just happen at our events. It's part of everyday life when you work at Hyve. There are all sorts of socials, inclusion workshops and professional development opportunities to get your teeth into. And then there are the benefits. From gym memberships to private medical care, season ticket loans to healthy pensions, we've got you covered in all kinds of ways. (We'll even give you an extra day off on your birthday)

The bit about Breakbulk

The Breakbulk events portfolio consists of three market-leading shows, each with a unique focus on industries including energy, engineering and construction, industrial manufacturing, maritime, transportation, and logistics.
