The Publican’s Morning Advertiser is launching a new event aimed at the spirits sector, to follow its successful Beer Innovation and Cider Trends summits.

The Spirits Summit will take place on 21 October at Rich Mix, situated in east London’s Shoreditch.

Aimed at everyone from the largest global players to the smallest of craft distillers, the day will feature exclusive research, insight into the pub sector, and a range of information on funding and building new craft brands.

It will be followed by an inspiring study tour of some of the capital’s most cutting-edge and popular spirits venues.

The event is supported by headline partner Diageo, and associate sponsor Pernod Ricard UK.

Topics to be covered include:

  • Diageo will discuss the company’s on-going Spirits Revolution initiative
  • Event exclusive research from on-trade specialists CGA Strategy
  • Operator panel: A panel of top on-trade retailers reveal the secrets to their success
  • Crowdfunding platform Crowdcube looks at alternative ways to fund a spirits start-up
  • Spirits specialist Dave Broom reveals his top bars from around the world
  • Supplier panel: Senior industry figures discuss the future of brand building in the on-trade

More speakers will be announced in due course.

“There is at least another £660m in value to be unlocked from the spirits category in the on-trade, and this new summit is designed to help pub operators and suppliers realise that potential,” said PMA​ editor Rob Willock.
