IBC Conferences has been operating since 1960 and has an unrivalled track record in our field. We're a wholly owned subsidiary of the Informa Group Plc, who are quoted on the London Stock Exchange (Media Section) and have offices in twelve countries and five continents around the globe. We've developed over time to become the leading global provider of market information to a wide cross-section of industries with particular emphasis on the following: telecommunications, media and information technology; banking, finance & insurance; pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals; energy; law, regulation, tax & accounting; construction, property & environment; maritime & transport.

IBC Conferences provides information via conferences, training courses, workshops, seminars, distance learning courses, in-house sessions and managed events for leading international companies and governments. We publish specialist reports based on our principal conferences and provide international exhibition and sponsorship opportunities associated with those conferences. As an independent organizer unaffiliated with any industrial or special interest organizations, IBC Conferences provides a neutral, unbiased forum for the evaluation of current research, market trends, technological developments and applications.

In the oil and gas field, IBC has solidified a strong hold in the market by offering a wide portfolio of events that cover exploration, production, refining and processing. We provide specific events on the advances in offshore drilling technologies, prevention of oil discharge and offshore pipeline technologies.

As the power and electricity industries face the transition from a highly regulated and monopolistic environment to market-based competition, IBC has stayed on the cutting edge. The conferences equal the continual technological development in power generation and deregulation. Our initial focus was exclusively geared toward the vast market for project financing around the globe.
