The ILMC Production Meeting (IPM) is the foremost platform for international production professionals to meet, network and share good practice.

The 14th edition of the IPM will take place in a virtual format on Tuesday 2 March 2021, the day before ILMC kicks off. The world’s leading production managers; health, safety and security specialists; crewing companies; production suppliers; transport and travel firms; new technology suppliers; venue and promoters’ reps will convene online to discuss the most pressing issues affecting the live events production industry.

As usual, the IPM schedule will combine four main panel topics with several Production Note sessions in which new ideas and innovations are presented, along with various opportunities to network; and will once again run alongside the Green Events & Innovations Conference, allowing IPM delegates to access a number of GEI breakout sessions, and network with GEI delegates.

IPM 14’s sponsors are epsMegaforceAccess All Areas & IQ Magazine.
