Hyve Group’s Nicola Meadows promoted

Nicola is the new divisional managing director for the Retail, Manufacturing and Engineering Division of the business.

Nicola joined Hyve in August 2022 as portfolio director for Spring and Autumn Fair, soon adding a number of other events to her remit, and taking on leadership responsibility for the entire retail portfolio.

Mark Shashoua, ceo of Hyve Group, commented: “During her time with us so far, Nicola has shown herself to be a strong and calm leader for her team and she is currently overseeing the rollout of Connect on the Spring and Autumn Fair portfolio. It’s her connection with Hyve’s ‘why’ that really makes her the ideal candidate for this role. I am very much looking forward to working with her to maximise the portfolio’s potential and create even more game-changing impact for our retail, manufacturing and engineering customer communities.”

Nicola added: “I feel honoured to be guiding such established events through an exciting time for the industry, working alongside incredibly talented and passionate teams. We are transforming the future of events with the launch of Connect at Spring & Autumn Fair, and our aim is to generate higher returns on investment for our exhibitors and an unrivalled return on time and experience for visitors across the entire division.

“It is our role to provide the best platforms to showcase great products and innovation as well as nurture the brands and retailers of the future to ensure continued business success.”
