About Us

Global Leader in In-Person, Virtual & Hybrid Event Management

From high level strategy to meticulous execution, The Bayley Group can be an exceptional asset to your project. We partner with some of the world’s leading experts in the design and delivery of outstanding programs, and bring our experience, enthusiasm and expertise to every client.

For more than 30 years, BG has worked with large global scientific congresses to high performance events, building a well-deserved reputation for successful results.

In 2020, we significantly increased our virtual expertise and worked closely with every client to quickly change direction and produce impactful digital experiences for their attendees. We researched, vetted and used a variety of platforms and providers, until we found the best partners to work with. The results speak for themselves, with growing success and highly satisfied clients.

Our staff has the most current certifications:

  • Digital Event Specialist – from PCMA
  • Pandemic On-Site Protocol – from the Event Leadership Institute and MPI

These certifications further prepare the BG team to lead the design, delivery, monetization and measurement of highly effective in-person and online gatherings that outperform expectations.

BG continues to be a leader in our own community, lending time and financially supporting the local causes which resonate with our staff and their families: Jessica’s House Hospice, South Huron Hospital Foundation and Huron Music Waves Festival.

The Bayley Group is a Healthcare Excellence Canada (HEC) Vendor of Record.

Testimonials

“The conference couldn’t have come together without all of your help and dedication, both leading up to it and during it. We appreciate that all three of our groups worked as one team, even going so far as to bus tables together! It was an eventful conference behind the scenes, and I was impressed by how seamlessly and easily you made the switches without the guests noticing.

 

Special shoutout for those who helped unorganized speakers with grace.”

Annual Meeting, Ottawa, June 2026

“During my tenure as Vice President of Sales for Cardinal Health and presently as Vice President Business Development for CareRx, I have had the pleasure of working with the Bayley Group, specifically Rebecca Darling for well over 10 years. From a conference management perspective, they are extremely diligent with all organizational aspects of conference planning. Their events run smoothly, they are well versed in all aspects of running a proper conference and most importantly they are easy to do business with, as they understand the needs of exhibitors and do their utmost to make the experience hassle free and enjoyable.”

“As an organization, Complete Purchasing Services has had the opportunity to work closely with The Bayley Group over the years, at such events as ‘Together We Care’. Each time, we have been very pleased in the way in which we have been treated as a sponsor and exhibitor. I have always found the members of the team to be very accommodating and responsive (even at later hours) to respond and provide assurance that all the details discussed are looked after. Overall, I have found The Bayley Group to be thoroughly professional, extremely organized and very easy to work with and would recommend them as tradeshow organizers for any group.”
