Motorexpo was created by Graeme Carver of The Aspect Partnership in 1996, working in partnership with the Canary Wharf Group to deliver an entirely new format of motoring event. Over the course of the last 20 years Motorexpo has evolved to become the world's biggest free-to-visit motoring event.

About Canary Wharf Group plc:

Canary Wharf Group plc is an iconic London real estate business which has overseen the largest urban regeneration project ever undertaken in Europe. We design, build and manage a unique set of assets to serve local and international companies, renowned retailers and some of the UK's most exciting technology start-ups.

Our vision is to create truly great places where people want to work, live and relax. Over the past 25 years we have developed 16 million square feet of London's disused docklands into one of the world's foremost business districts, with more than 11 million square feet to come. Canary Wharf is home to the global and regional headquarters of leading names in law, banking, financial and professional services, media and technology.

The Canary Wharf Estate is fast evolving into one of London's most exciting hubs. Alongside high quality offices for established companies, the Estate is a major retail destination that includes five shopping malls, including the new leisure development, Crossrail Place, housing one of London's most stunning roof gardens. The Estate is also home to Level39, Europe's most influential financial technology accelerator, and the Cognicity smart cities technology initiative.

We will soon deliver a major residential building programme, providing thousands of new homes for Londoners. Outside of Canary Wharf, the Group has a stake in the 20 Fenchurch Street ('Walkie Talkie') development in the City of London and in the Shell Centre redevelopment on London's South Bank. We are in the business of place-making and continue to create cityscapes of and for the future.

The Group's world-class, year-round arts and events programme offers over 100 diverse and culturally inspiring events performed throughout the Estate. Winner of the 2010 Christie's Award for Best Corporate Art Collection and Programme at the International Art and Work Awards, Canary Wharf Group showcases over 65 pieces of permanent art throughout the Estate, designed and created by more than 50 artists and craftsmen. A regular exhibition programme in the Lobby of One Canada Square and Jubilee Park further adds to the Estate's comprehensive cultural and creative offering.

We employ over 1,000 people and there is a working population at Canary Wharf of 105,000 people. The arrival of Crossrail trains in 2018 will strengthen the resilience of the existing transport infrastructure, doubling capacity and cutting journey times into central London and further afield. It will take 39 minutes to get to Heathrow airport, while City airport is just 10 minutes away.

Canary Wharf Group is a wholly owned joint venture between Brookfield Property Partners and the Qatar Investment Authority, two of the world's largest commercial real estate and fund companies. The Group was acquired in March 2015 and as part of this process, Songbird, the former majority owner of Canary Wharf Group, delisted from the London Stock Exchange's Alternative Investment Market.

The Canary Wharf Group board of directors consists of ten directors; two executive directors, and four non-executive directors from Brookfield and QIA respectively.
