Business information giant Informa grew revenue by 11.4% to £3.6bn in 2024 helped by a booming B2B events business.

Adjusted operating profit (excluding certain exceptional costs) grew by 23% on an underlying basis to £995m.

Informa said B2B events are being fuelled by the “rising value of face-to-face connections in a digital world” and what it calls the “AI time dividend” as technology gives people more time for “innovation and impact”.
