About Chain of Events

Chain of Events brings together the people shaping the future of technology, business and innovation through three leading summits in Paris.

Chain of Events runs three summits, all in Paris, all within the same week:

• Signal Week — the institutional summit for digital assets. Founded in 2019 as Paris Blockchain Week and elevated to Signal Week in 2026, it draws 10,000+ attendees from 100+ countries, roughly 70% of them C-suite. Its last edition convened 250+ banks and financial institutions, over $50T in assets under management, and 70 government officials and regulators — BlackRock, J.P. Morgan, Deutsche Bank, Fidelity, BNY Mellon, Citi, the London Stock Exchange, ESMA and the European Commission among them. The thesis: TradFi and digital assets are no longer two industries but one financial system being rebuilt on shared rails.

• RAISE Summit — the AI summit for decision-makers. Launched in 2024, it has grown from 2,000 to 9,000+ attendees across three editions (80%+ C-level, from 76 countries), with 350+ speakers spanning AI infrastructure, enterprise adoption, agentic systems, sovereignty and policy. The 2026 edition at the Carrousel du Louvre featured Mark Cuban, Yann LeCun and Nelson Griggs (Nasdaq), plus the Versailles AI Gala, the RAISE Hackathon and RAISE the STAKES (1,100+ startup applications in 2026).

• MACHINA Summit — Europe's leading event dedicated to Physical AI: intelligence that acts on the real world through humanoids, industrial robotics, autonomous systems and next-generation human–machine interfaces. Its inaugural 2026 edition brought together the labs building humanoids and the enterprises deploying robotics at scale, with speakers from Google DeepMind, Boston Dynamics, NVIDIA, 1X, Apptronik and Agility Robotics. It's the fastest-moving brand in the portfolio, with the most white space ahead of it.

In July 2026, all three brands were acquired by Hyve Group, the global B2B events organiser behind Fintech Meetup, HLTH and Shoptalk. In July 2027, they'll converge on the Palais des Congrès during the exact same week.

Role Overview

Chain of Events is looking for a Marketing Intern to be the right hand to the Senior Marketing Manager for MACHINA through the final six months of the 2027 cycle, reporting into them and working closely with the Marketing Lead for RAISE and MACHINA, the sales team, and the production team. This is a varied, hands-on role for someone who loves getting things done, keeps track of the details, and wants to see how a major summit comes together.

A core focus will be supporting the delivery of sponsor marketing commitments, and the pre-production and onsite production work that brings MACHINA to life at the Palais des Congrès. Alongside that, you'll help wherever needed across 360 event and digital marketing, from campaigns and content to activations and onsite delivery in July.

This six-month internship runs from 1 February to 31 July 2027, covering the final six months of MACHINA's 2027 cycle - an edition set to double in size - from sponsor and production planning to the summit itself in July and post-event wrap-up.

Key Responsibilities

Sponsorship Marketing Delivery

• Help deliver the marketing requirements in sponsor packages, from logos, profiles, and content to social posts, email features, and onsite branding.

• Track sponsor deliverables, deadlines, and approvals so every commitment is met on time and to standard.

• Collect assets and information from sponsors, and brief the design, web, and social teams on what is needed.

• Help report back on sponsor marketing delivery, with proof of each deliverable for the sales team.

Onsite Production & Pre-Production

• Support pre-production planning with the production team and suppliers, from run-of-show inputs to signage, stage, and branding lists.

• Help track production schedules, artwork deadlines, and supplier deliverables in the lead-up to the summit.

• Work onsite in July to support the build, sponsor activations, and the smooth running of the marketing side of the summit.

360 Event & Digital Marketing

• Assist across campaigns where needed, from social and email to web updates, content, and promotions.

• Support speaker communications, side events, and activations around the summit, including the Physical AI Dinner at Versailles.

Right Hand to the Senior Marketing Manager

• Support the Senior Marketing Manager with a varied to-do list, keeping tasks, trackers, and Monday.com boards up to date.

• Prepare notes, follow-ups, and status updates, and help keep the wider team aligned through the final six months of the cycle.

What You'll Bring

Experience & Knowledge

• Currently studying (or recently graduated) in marketing, business, communications, events, or a related field, and eligible for an internship agreement in France.

• Highly organised, confident in Google Sheets or Excel and work-management tools, and careful with detail.

• Some marketing or events experience through study, a previous internship, or a project.

• Clear written English, and confident communicating with sponsors, suppliers, and colleagues. French is a plus.

• Enthusiasm for AI tools that help you work faster, and a willingness to experiment.

Working Style

• Ambitious and eager to learn - you want to see how a major event comes together, from plan to show floor.

• Organised and proactive, able to juggle a varied to-do list, and comfortable working at pace in the run-up to the summit.

• Easy-going and approachable, happy to ask questions and take feedback.

Working Environment

This role sits within a fast-paced, high-energy marketing team behind MACHINA Summit, the robotics and physical AI summit held in Paris alongside RAISE.

The ability to stay organised, communicate clearly, and stay accurate under pressure is essential.
