N-ACT Summit 2026

Delivering a Flagship Connectivity Event for Space Hub Yorkshire

Space Hub Yorkshire wanted to launch the N-ACT network with an event that matched the scale of its ambition.

Working in collaboration with Space North and the UK Space Agency, the goal was to create a high-value summit that introduced the network and positioned the North as a serious player in the UK’s advanced connectivity landscape.

​

The Challenge

With a brand-new network to introduce, Space Hub Yorkshire needed to turn a fresh concept into a credible, must-attend industry event.

That meant building momentum from scratch, generating registrations, securing high-calibre speakers in specialist sectors, and delivering a seamless experience that would leave attendees confident in the future of the Northern-Advanced Connectivity Technologies (N-ACT) network.

Our Role

We delivered end-to-end event support to bring N-ACT Summit 2026 to life, covering strategy, promotion and delivery. Our support included:

  • Event branding including visual identity, social templates, badges and collateral
  • Copywriting for the ticketing page, event overview, agenda sessions and speaker content
  • Social media management across LinkedIn, including creative, copy and campaign execution
  • Email marketing through Mailchimp, from launch campaigns to attendee updates
  • Sponsorship support including deck creation and outreach materials
  • Speaker and exhibition management with briefing calls, comms and coordination, resulting in zero speaker dropouts
  • On-the-day event delivery including registrations, speaker liaison and live event support

The N-ACT Summit in Numbers

The N-ACT Summit successfully brought together leaders from government, industry, defence, academia and innovation to explore the future of advanced connectivity technologies. It was an event that combined strategic insight, commercial opportunity and meaningful collaboration, all under one roof.
