For nearly two decades, Cenex Expo has served as a key gathering place for innovators from industry, government, and academia, accelerating the transition to zero-emission transport and developing connected automated mobility to realise the benefits of self-driving vehicles.  The move to Wales marks the first-ever “road trip” for Cenex Expo, expanding the event’s reach while continuing to unite the UK’s leading innovation community.

ICC Wales is a world-class conference venue location in Newport, South Wales. The venue offers cutting-edge facilities and a fresh, modern design tailored to meet all event needs. The purpose-built venue offers 26,000 square meters of event space, integrated conference and exhibition halls, and excellent transport links, allowing Cenex Expo to deliver an exceptional experience for UK and international visitors. 

The relocation also aligns with Cenex Expo’s mission to support and energise automotive innovation through engagement with regional clusters. Wales is home to approximately 150 automotive-related companies, employing around 18,000 people and generating £3 billion in turnover. In collaboration with the Welsh Automotive Forum, the Welsh Government continues to invest in low-carbon innovation, skills development, and advanced technologies such as semiconductors and cybersecurity, creating a fitting backdrop for the next chapter of Cenex Expo

Conveniently located with excellent travel connections, ICC Wales is easily accessible from major cities cross the UK and beyond. Just minutes from the M4 and 95 minutes from London Paddington, and well-served by nearby airports and rail links, it ensures seamless journeys for all visitors.

Surrounded by 20 acres of woodland, the ICC offers a breathtaking natural backdrop that enhances the event.
