AEV introduces UTAC Millbrook as newest member

The Association of Event Venues (AEV) has announced UTAC Millbrook has joined as its newest member.

Set in 700 acres in the heart of Bedfordshire, UTAC Millbrook is a premier exhibition and conference venue and part of a well respected automotive testing facility. Renowned for its state-of-the-art infrastructure, cutting-edge technology and exceptional customer service, this world-class location offers a unique and versatile setting for exhibitions, conferences and live event experiences.

Jason Lunn, head of events, tracks & rental UK, UTAC, said, “I am pleased to be able to bring our venue into the AEV and, having had previous experience as a member at other venues and time on the AEV Board, I know the valuable work the association carries out. While we do run some events, our business is primarily that of a venue. With the challenges we all face operating in today’s market, I am sure being part of the AEV will be a benefit both to our business and to the association and we look forward to working with other members to improve standards and opportunities going forward.”

Rachel Parker, director, AEV, welcomed the association’s latest member, saying, “AEV creates opportunities for our member venues to connect and collaborate and we promote the exchange of best practices driving the improvement of industry standards. We are delighted to be working with Jason again. UTAC Millbrook is a distinctive venue and we look forward to sharing our experience with them and welcome the skills they have to share.”
