With just days to go until RVE 2021, and with excitement building for this year's event we thought we'd give you a full preview of what is to come at Derby Arena on 4 November. Registration is FREE for all rail professionals.
The first in-person Modern Railways RVE show since the pandemic, it'll be a fantastic opportunity to catch up and network with industry peers. With an exhibition, FREE access to the Fourth Friday Club Rail in the Midlands conference, and RVE BigIdea held in association with Rail Forum Midlands, it'll be one busy show.
Doors will be open from 09:30, with the conference due to start at 10:00. Doors close at 16:00 and we also have a limited number of goodie bags on the door, so be prompt!
As well as a sold-out floor of exhibitors, the Fourth Friday Club’s Rail in the Midlands Conference has a high-profile line-up of industry speakers including Midlands Connect Head of Rail Karen Heppenstall, East Midlands Railway MD Will Rogers, Resonate International Business Development Director Gavin Panter, West Midlands Rail Executive’s Executive Director Malcolm Holmes, Rail Operations (UK) CEO Karl Watts, Tarmac Head of Rail Chris Swan, West Midlands Trains MD Julian Edwards, Network Rail North West & Central Region MD Tim Shoveller and CrossCountry Trains MD Tom Joyner.
