Venue contact coming soon. Until then, send venue questions to Laura and she will route them.
frame:work:london runs across four days. The conference itself is Friday 6 and Saturday 7 November, and that is what a general ticket buys. The 5th and the 8th are separate things with their own arrangements, so be precise about it when you brief your team.
Roughly 275 people, three concurrent session tracks, 30+ presentations and panels, 8+ workshops.

Nearest Underground stations
Walking times are approximate. Each link opens walking directions from the venue.
Temple, about 3 minutes
Holborn, about 10 minutes
Covent Garden, about 9 minutes
Waterloo, about 15 minutes across Waterloo Bridge. Waterloo is also a National Rail terminus, so mainline trains as well as the Underground.
Your allotment is set by your sponsor agreement. Ticket links are distributed once your payment has cleared. If you have not received a ticket link yet, contact Laura. The link is unique to your company, so it is not published here.
Everyone registers individually, because each attendee agrees to the event terms and conditions personally. There is no bulk registration.
Your allotment has to cover everyone from your company who is at the conference. That includes your speakers and any staff working your table, not just the people attending sessions.
The one exception is Friday morning set up. You can bring people in to help you build your table who are not ticket holders and are not staying for the conference.
Lunch on both conference days is included for every ticket holder, sponsors and staff alike. Your team is also welcome to attend workshops and Sunday brunch. More details posted by October.
If you do not intend to use all your tickets, let us know and we will pass them to the wait list.
Applies to packages that include table space. Check your agreement.
The community space is on the second floor, between the breakout presentation rooms and the food. It is sized for conversation: a small amount of gear, a monitor showing a reel, and your people standing next to it.
What we provide: at minimum a 6' table, two chairs and power.
What you can bring. The table area has room for a banner, a monitor on a stand that you supply, your gear & swag for the table, plus a table cloth.
TBC: how many amps we can give you per table. Send your power requirements and we will confirm what the venue can supply against them.
Access. Set up is from 7am on Friday 6 November. On Saturday we are on site from 8:30 if you need to get in before doors. Breakdown is from 5:30pm on Saturday, alongside the happy hour.
Your gear can stay on your table on Friday night. The building is secured overnight, so there is no need to strike and rebuild between the two days.
Empty cases can live in the event office for the duration of the show.
Applies to packages that include a speaking slot. Check your agreement.
There are two rounds of speaker promotion. The first goes out 7 September, so we need your speaker information by 2 September to be included. The second goes out 1 October, with information requested by 25 September.
What we need from you:
How to send it. Everything goes through one form: the frame:work speaker form
It asks for the title and description first, so it is easiest to fill in once you have settled those. Nothing you send is locked. We can amend any of it right up to the event.
How the room works.
Slides. There is no deadline to send us slides, because there are no slides to send. You present from your own machine, so your deck can change up to the moment you walk on.
Your session time. We will confirm where you sit in the schedule by 7 September, so you can book travel around it rather than guessing.
Presentation notes:
On the day. Be at the room ten minutes before your slot. There is no rehearsal time, and laptops get tested in the window immediately before you go on.
Not sure what to deliver for a frame:work presentation? Get in touch with David or Laura and let's talk it through.
Applies to packages that include a workshop. Check your agreement.
Workshops run on Thursday 5 November, offsite, in three hour blocks. They can be focus groups, site visits or in-depth teaching. We encourage trying something new with these sessions.
Executive Producer sponsors need to supply:
You set the capacity. Tell us the number your space and format can take and we will cap signups there. We recommend keeping it around 12 people.
We manage workshop ticketing. Workshop signup runs through the conference ticket funnel, so attendees book their place the same way they book everything else. You do not need to chase invitations, and we need your workshop information by 25 September at the latest. After that we cannot open bookings for it.
How to send it. Same form as the conference sessions: the frame:work speaker form
Workshop attendee information will be provided to you so you can coordinate their attendance.
We are finalising delivery arrangements with 180 Studios and will post the details here: the earliest date the venue will accept deliveries and the shipping address to use, which carriers deliver to the building, loading access, and the latest date and time for collection after the event.
Shipping is yours to arrange. Sponsors book and pay for their own freight in both directions, including any customs or import paperwork for gear travelling from outside the UK. frame:work does not arrange transport or act as importer. If you are shipping in from overseas, build that into your timeline early, because it is the part that goes wrong closest to the event.
Labelling, once we have an address. Label every case with your company name, a contact name, a mobile number, the collection date, the courier, and the number of boxes in the shipment. Tell us in advance about anything being collected by courier so we can have someone there to meet them.
Recommended hotels. frame:work:london does not have a room block, so book directly and book early.
Every presentation is recorded and streamed. The livestream is free and open to anyone who registers, and recordings go up on the frame:work YouTube channel afterward at no charge. frame:work does not sell recordings, ever.
You will get an edit of your own session with a transcript in the weeks after the event, to use however you like.
Livestream links will be posted closer to the event date.
Coming soon.
The frame:work code of conduct applies to everyone in the room, including sponsors and their staff.
Attendees choose at registration whether they consent to being photographed or filmed. If you are shooting anything at your table or in your session, check with the producers first.
These are the dates we are working to. If any of them move, we will tell you. If you need one to move, tell us early and we will do what we can.
