The leading celebration of transport technology – the ITS UK President’s Dinner – turns 20!
The President’s Dinner is the leading celebration of transport technology. It showcases the very best of the intelligent transport sector, including the innovation, expertise and dynamism of organisations and individuals across the industry.
The Dinner also sees us hand out our annual Awards, recognising all the organisations, individuals and projects that have delivered for the UK. It is attended by key clients and decision makers from a variety of organisations. It is a perfect opportunity to meet friends old and new, over a luxurious evening in the heart of London.
To mark 20 years, the Dinner will be heading to the fabulous art deco Ballroom of the Sheraton Grand Park Lane, London. The iconic, 11,000 square-foot Grade II listed ballroom is renowned for its 1920s high ceilings, and, chandeliers – the perfect location to celebrate the 20th anniversary.
The evening will begin with a drinks reception at 6pm, before guests are invited to join us for a lavish three-course meal and awards ceremony.
Tables of 10, half tables of five and individual tickets are now available, with special rates available for Executive Members.
