Phase Two for Excel
The London Borough of Newham has granted planning permission to Excel London for its further development as an international exhibition and conference centre. The venue is still in consultation with members of the UK events industry in order to ascertain its requirements for the venue before beginning the search for funding worth around £150 million
“Excel is a serious, long-term player in the international exhibition and conference markets and will support its position through both capital investment and service innovation,” says CEO, Jamie Buchan. “Between now and the 2012 Olympic Games, London has a unique opportunity to showcase the capital as the world’s leading business and event destination. Excel will play a major part in this.”
