IT link speeds things up

Event organisers at one of the leading Midlands venues will now have faster IT access, thanks to a major investment in new technology.

The Southwater Event Group, which owns The International Centre, in Telford, has installed a1-gigabyte internet link which has equal upload and download speeds, to ensure organisers, delegates and exhibitors have faster and more reliable internet connectivity.

Chief executive, Tom Gray, said: "There are very few venues that offer this level of connectivity, and we're very proud to be leading the way when it comes to IT facilities.

"We know that high speed capacity and reliability are crucial for our clients, and so this investment is sure to be good news for event organisers who are considering bringing their business to Telford."

The new IT link is part of a multi-million pound investment at the venue that has created a brand new events suite.

The Ludlow Suite is a 1300 sq m events space with additional seminar rooms and a dedicated banqueting kitchen to serve the new facilities.

It will be officially unveiled at a black-tie gala dinner for the UK's top event buyers and their guests in September.

The new suite means The International Centre now has over 15,000 sq m of event space for all kinds of events from small boardroom meetings right through to large scale conferences and exhibitions.

Southwater Event Group also includes The Holiday Inn, The International Hotel, Grays Hotel, and an in-house production company, Stagecraftuk.
