The GeoPlace conference is a day of best practice, announcements, and key insights from influencers, plus multiple chances for you to connect with the people you want to talk to.
GeoPlace is delighted to announce the date and venue of our annual conference for 2026, and invite you to be part of it.
Taking place in the well-connected city of Leicester, home to the legendary Tigers, this event will attract a wide range of spatial data users from right across the public and private sectors. At last year’s London event last year we had 528 attendees from 289 different organisations. See who came here.
We know suppliers offer exceptional solutions for organisations looking to unlock the full value of spatial data — and we can connect you directly with those customers.
Use the event to meet the people who want to use your products and services. It's our 20th annual event. Join us. Take part.
We are offering the opportunity for suppliers to participate in the conference agenda by facilitating a roundtable session on a topic related to the conference's themes or your area of expertise. Each table holds up to 10 people, enabling an intimate and interactive discussion environment. You’ll run the same discussion session three times with different groups of attendees. This gives you the opportunity to share your insights with a broader audience and gather varied perspectives from different participants. This setup is a great opportunity for you to showcase your expertise, connect with other professionals, and gain visibility in your field.
