AVS Community Live is back – and this is one conversation you’ll want to be part of.

10:30am – 2pm | Venue Henley | In Person Event

At our last Community Live, we tackled everything from agency business and commission to pricing, business on the books for 2026/27 and the challenges and opportunities facing our sector.

But the biggest takeaway was simple: nothing beats being in the room together.

Community Live gives you the chance to speak openly, share experiences and learn from people who genuinely understand the world of academic venues. We may face many of the same issues, but we also share the same ambition – to champion the absolute brilliance of our venues and help our sector thrive.

This months topics include

  • Summer Schools
  • The enquiries we are losing and why?
  • Resource – are your teams full skilled and fully staffed?
  • Reporting – are you getting the right data out of your systems? Is it helping you make decisions.
  • AI in academic venues is it a useful tool or unwanted distraction?
  • Sustainability What clients are genuinely asking for and how venues can demonstrate meaningful impact without greenwashing. Our next event takes place on

10 November, from 10.30am–2pm, at AVS member Henley Management Centre.

Expect honest conversations, fresh ideas, practical takeaways and plenty of opportunities to learn from one another.

Places are limited, so register now – you really don’t want to hear afterwards how good it was!
