A Place for Everyone

Our Diversity, Inclusion and Belonging Commitments

As a diverse business which believes in equal opportunities, Informa Markets is committed to:

creating environments where everyone feels valued, safe and comfortable in bringing their whole self to work, regardless of their gender, identity, disability, race, ethnicity or sexual orientation
supporting inclusivity in all that we do by removing barriers and actively encouraging accessibility for all
promoting fair and inclusive practices, and refusing to accept discriminatory behaviour through a culture of accountability
developing our own understanding, and that of the communities we work with, of diversity, inclusion and belonging issues, including racism and social injustice

Meet Our Colleague Networks

Our six cross-company AllInforma networks champion and support some of the communities that are most important to us. Run by colleagues, they are open to colleagues from each community as well as allies anywhere in our business.

AllInforma Serve

The newest network, set up in 2023, AllInforma Serve is for all colleagues with connection to military service, be they veterans, in active service or a family member. We create a space for colleagues to connect, share insights and grow professionally, including in transitioning to the Corporate world from service.

AllInforma Rainbow

AllInforma Rainbow connects, educates and supports members of the LGBTQIA+ community, allies and colleagues who want to learn more. We hold workshops and masterclasses, share reading and watching recommendations, organise Informa's participation in Pride, partner with charities and support inclusion throughout the company.

AllInforma Nations

Founded in 2020, AllInforma Nations focuses on ethnic minorities and multi culturalism. We connect and support colleagues from minority ethnic groups, celebrate different cultures, support and partner with underrepresented groups through community outreach and help make our business more actively inclusive.

AllInforma Balance

AllInforma Balance supports gender balance at Informa, fostering a network that promotes awareness.
Through events, communications and champions, we’re building a community of passionate colleagues helping to make Informa a place where gender equality thrives.

AllInforma iCAN

iCAN - Informa’s Career Ambitions Network - supports anyone who wants to grow and develop their career in the business, particularly colleagues in their early years. We host fireside chats and podcasts with senior leaders about their career journeys, as well as events that help colleagues to build their networks and knowledge of career opportunities.

AllInforma Iluminate

Illuminate supports colleagues with visible and invisible disabilities and conditions. We create spaces for colleagues to meet and share their experiences, broadening awareness and demystifying disability. We also develop resources and guidance that support inclusion and accessibility throughout our products and services.
