Welcome to Visit Essex for Business

Who we are

Visit Essex for Business is the business arm of Visit Essex, the official organisation working in partnership with the private and public sectors to promote Essex venues for conferences, meetings and events.

Why choose Essex?

Essex venues are suitable for small meetings and conferences up to 2,500 at the Crowne Plaza Colchester Five Lakes Resort - our largest conference venue in the county.  In Essex we can provide a high quality experience with consistent professionalism for all your conferences, team building and events 

Boasting wonderful countryside, the longest coastline in the UK, towns (and City!) plus picturesque villages, this unique and diverse county provides a fantastic setting for any event, and if you're looking for something a bit different we can help. How about a meeting for up to 30 on a Thames Sailing Barge, team building and accommodation on Osea Island (an idyllic island in the Blackwater Estuary), or a conference at Layer Marney Tower, the tallest Tudor gatehouse in the UK? And if you're "eco friendly" then The Pod at the CEME Centre is a must.

We also have over 5,000 quality assured hotel bedrooms throughout Essex, and our largest award-winning 4* hotel, the Radisson Blu at Stansted, boasts 500.

Essex also has facilities to host major exhibitions with dedicated areas up to 3,500 sqms, plus break-out and catering areas too.

With accessible major road links into the heart, and every corner of Essex via the M25, M11 and A12, international gateways - London Stansted Airport, Harwich International Port and London Cruise Terminal, Tilbury, plus mainline rail links direct to/from London Liverpool Street and the Olympic Park at Stratford, there is no excuse not to Visit Essex for Business where we will exceed your expectations!
