Independent, hands-on and trusted for over 20 years
We’re Made Events - an independent, founder-led event management agency with a reputation for delivering standout experiences and results. With over two decades of specialist experience in the mortgage and financial services industry, we’re proud to be the go-to team for lenders, networks, trade bodies and intermediaries alike.
We’re not a faceless agency or part of a larger group - we’re a tight-knit team that’s fully involved in every event we deliver. We don’t just advise from the sidelines - we’re hands-on, sleeves rolled up, and there with you from first idea to final applause. It’s this personal, detail-driven approach that sets us apart and keeps our clients coming back.
Founded by Andy Shields, Laura Calcroft, and James Lucas, we bring together creative flair, operational precision, and strategic thinking under one roof. We know how to make events that feel fresh, immersive and relevant - because we live and breathe the industries we serve.
Our sweet spot? Conferences, exhibitions, and awards events - especially in the mortgage and specialist lending space. It’s where we’ve grown up, where we’ve made our mark, and where we continue to innovate.
At Made Events, we believe events should do more than just run smoothly - they should inspire, connect, and deliver real commercial impact. That’s what we do best.

We’re not just here to deliver events. we’re here to create experiences that move people, grow communities, and drive real results. Every event we produce is a reflection of our passion, precision, and pride in what we do.
