Shaurya Salwan, Senior Event Manager in Opus Agency’s London office, earned a place on Conference & Incentive Travel’s (C&IT) Agency A-List Class of 2026.
The annual list highlights 35 agency professionals under 35 whose creativity, commercial understanding, and resilience drive business growth.
Selected by an industry judging panel led by C&IT Senior Editor Ceri Jones, the 2026 cohort recognizes emerging leaders who adapt under pressure, protect team well-being, and deliver complex live programs.
“Chairing this year’s judging panel made one thing clear: the next generation of event professionals has a great deal of creative agility, but most impressive is their commercial acumen, especially when contributing to business growth so early in their careers,” Ceri stated in the announcement.
The Class of 2026 meets on November 26, 2026, for an industry celebration at the Park Hyatt London, supported by the Switzerland Convention & Incentive Bureau and Zurich Convention Bureau.
