Welcome to MESA - The Meetings and events support association
Better experiences - higher engagement!
MESA (Meetings & Events Support Association) is a community network of companies and a ‘people-first’ ethos, collaborating, and working together with fresh new ideas. Behind the member companies are like-minded people in the industry who connect and share their ideas and challenges, in a trustworthy network.

Our aim is to provide a close unit for suppliers in the meetings and events industry to network, support and learn from each other. We specialise in collaborating, education, and networking; meeting regularly for personal and professional development for our teams and leaders, to increase knowledge, innovation, and success.
C Community of members collaborating and sharing
MESA is a network of small to medium sized companies (SME’s) supplying the events industry, with a ‘people-first’ ethos, collaborating and working together with fresh new ideas, based on trust between members.
