Forum Group Events & Marketing is proud to announce an extraordinary milestone, taking home multiple top honours at the last ever and 50th Anniversary Meetings & Events Australia (MEA) Awards.
Forum Group have once again taken out the 2024/2025 National title for Event Agency of the Year, reaffirming our reputation as leaders in creative, strategic and flawlessly executed events. This marks our third consecutive win in this category, officially inducting Forum Group into the MEA Hall of Fame.
We were also recognised for our outstanding work in the government and association sector, winning Association Event of the Year (NSW) and Government Event of the Year (NSW).
In addition to the agency achievements, Forum Group’s own Senior Event Manager, Clare Dawson, was honoured with the coveted Event Manager of the Year award. A testament to her ongoing commitment to excellence.

Owner and Managing Director, Lauren Hayward, stated the announcements were an incredible honour, particularly in line with the 50th anniversary and final year of MEA, and welcome recognition of the dedication of Forum Group’s team.
“The Forum Group Events & Marketing team have been passionate members of MEA throughout the years and are truly honoured by this final recognition as part of the 50th anniversary. Our team takes pride in providing our clients memorable events that connect, educate and inspire their delegates. Our focus remains on delivering innovative event marketing and execution solutions, whilst providing outstanding customer service. We could not have achieved these accolades without the dedication from our entire team, and share this win with our wonderful clients and suppliers.” said Hayward.
