As a result, the firm has made the decision to host its own ”Biba Buzz” event in Manchester

Markerstudy has revealed that it will not be exhibiting at this year’s Biba Conference.

The conference is held at Manchester Central annually and Markerstudy has often stood out at the event with its flamboyant themes.

However, in a statement sent to Insurance Times, the firm said it was unable to secure the stand it had hoped for in 2025.

In turn, Markerstudy will be hosting its own event in Manchester, which it has named “Biba Buzz”.

A spokesperson said: “Unfortunately, this year we were unable to secure the larger footprint and prominent position near the front of Manchester Central that we had hoped for.

“As a result, we have made the decision to host a Biba Buzz event instead and we look forward to welcoming all our clients and partners in Manchester next month.”

Markerstudy’s event will go ahead on 14 May 2025, the same day the Biba conference opens, at The Bridgewater Hall, opposite Manchester Central.

It will be open from 10am-3pm.
