We’re proud to share that Jasmine Taylor, Exhibitions Project Manager at Emota, has been named in the Exhibition News 30underThirty Class of 2026 – a fantastic recognition of her impact, ambition and leadership within the exhibitions industry.
The Exhibition News 30underThirty is a year-long development programme designed to celebrate and support emerging talent across the global exhibition industry.
Since joining Emota in 2024 as a Project Coordinator, Jasmine’s progression has been nothing short of remarkable. Promoted to Project Manager in 2025, she has quickly become a trusted lead on some of our most complex and high-profile exhibition programmes, operating with confidence and influence well beyond her career stage.
In just two years in the industry, Jasmine has delivered major global exhibition programmes across Canada, Singapore and Europe, managing projects ranging from small-scale builds to multi-million-pound exhibition programmes. From 24sqm to 600sqm booths, she has coordinated large multidisciplinary teams, senior client stakeholders and specialist suppliers, consistently balancing creative ambition with operational precision to deliver engaging, flawlessly executed experiences.
As Simon Davenport, Head of Environments at Emota, says, “over the last two years, Jasmine has laid incredibly strong foundations for her career. The rigour of her project management and the excellence of her delivery are already there, but what’s most exciting is her passion for innovation – particularly around sustainability – which will take her to the next level in the years ahead.”
That future-focused mindset is already shaping Jasmine’s work. With a strong interest in data-led engagement, emerging technology and sustainability-first design, she is committed to pushing exhibition delivery forward. Her material-first, circular approach has contributed to multiple award-winning exhibition builds, demonstrating that responsible design can enhance creativity and audience engagement rather than limit it.
Alongside her delivery work, Jasmine is passionate about developing people and the wider industry. From mentoring early-career talent to building collaborative project communities, she is already playing an active role in shaping the next generation of exhibitions professionals.
Being named in the Exhibition News 30underThirty Class of 2026 recognises not only Jasmine’s achievements to date, but her potential to continue driving innovation, sustainability and excellence across the exhibitions sector.
Congratulations, Jasmine – a hugely deserved achievement, and one we’re incredibly proud to celebrate
