For the first time since the foundation of the agency, Panos Pictures held a Photographers’ Meeting at Folly Farm in Somerset from 21 and 23 May.

The meeting was followed by a day of pitches where photographers were able to present their projects to various panels of industry professionals including Chris Aldhous (Goodpilot), Chris Littlewood (Flowers Gallery), Andrew Saniger (Thames & Hudson), Laurence Watts (Action Aid), Jon Levy (Foto8) and Melanie Grant (Intelligent Life Magazine).

This was followed by a party at the Frontline Club in London on Thursday, 24 May 2012 where photographers and Panos staff were able to meet clients and other photographers.
