Who we are?
Informa Markets
Informa Markets connects buyers and sellers and supports the flow of business and trade in over a dozen specialist markets including Boating, Pharmaceuticals, Food, Fashion, and Infrastructure. As the world's leading market-making company, we bring a diverse range of specialist markets to life, unlocking opportunities and helping them to thrive 365 days of the year.
What we do?
Our leading brands connect people with knowledge, helping businesses and professionals in dozens of specialist markets to learn more, know more and do more. We do this through a broad range of products and services: live and on-demand events, specialist media and content, expert and academic research, accredited training, digital demand generation services, audience development services, buyer intent platforms, and more. We work in two main markets: in Academic Markets through our Taylor & Francis business, and in Business-to-Business Markets through Informa Markets and Informa Connect. From 2025, we will add two new B2B Markets divisions: Informa Festivals and Informa TechTarget.
Think big. Act Small
We love ambitious thinking and taking bold options. At the same time, we recognise that success also comes from rolling up our sleeves, sweating the detail and taking personal ownership of the things that matter.
Trust must be earned
We don’t just say we’re specialists, we live and breathe the subjects we work in and the communities we work with. By getting closer to our customers and partners, and offering support every step of the way, we build trust and the confidence to rely on us to do the right things, in the right way.
Success is a partnership
We get to better answers by combining skills and talents, joining forces and embracing ideas, wherever they come from. This broadens perspectives, expands horizons, sparks innovation and keeps our thinking fresh.
More freedom. Fewer barriers
We’re light on our feet. We do things swiftly, flexibly and with as few obstacles as possible. Our colleagues have the freedom and autonomy to think fast, act on opportunities and do what is best and most sustainable for us and our customers.
