Beware of the Fraudulent Event by Eimran Khan – A Deliberate Attempt to Mislead the Industry

Introduction

The business events and conferences industry thrives on credibility, trust, and delivering real value to attendees. However, a recent case of blatant fraud by Eimran Khan, a former conference producer dismissed for gross misconduct, has raised serious concerns. He is attempting to mislead the industry by organizing an event that fraudulently imitates BTOES (Business Transformation & Operational Excellence Summit)—a highly respected and globally recognized event.

This article exposes the full extent of the fraudulent activities and warns industry professionals, speakers, sponsors, and attendees to steer clear of this deceptive operation.

Who Is Eimran Khan and What Is He Doing?

Eimran Khan, who was dismissed from his role at BTOES for gross misconduct, has now resurfaced, attempting to replicate and mislead by creating a fraudulent event. His event is a direct copy-paste attempt to mimic BTOES, aimed at confusing attendees, speakers, and sponsors into believing they are engaging with the legitimate and highly regarded event.

How This Fraud Works

  • Copying Unique Branding & Design: The fraudulent event has been designed to mirror the branding, colors, website layout, and styling of BTOES. This is a deliberate attempt to deceive.
  • Plagiarizing Content & Awards Program: He has ripped off our awards program, including the scoring matrix, descriptions, and key content. This is not an accident—it is a calculated move to mislead.
  • Stealing Website Structure & Functionality: He has copied our website forms, buttons, and even the text used on them to create an illusion of legitimacy.
  • Misleading Industry Experts & Speakers: Speakers who have never agreed to participate are being wrongfully listed on his website.
  • Deliberately Choosing the Same Date & Location: His event is being staged on the same date and in the same city as the past BTOES event to further add to the confusion.

Why This Is a Serious Concern

  1. This Is Not a Real Event – Given Eimran Khan’s track record of unethical behavior, there is serious doubt that this event will even take place as promised.
  2. Speakers & Sponsors Are Being Misled – Many respected industry professionals are unknowingly being listed as speakers.
  3. Attendees Risk Financial Loss – If this event collapses (which is highly likely), those who purchased tickets could lose their money with no recourse.
  4. Legal Action Is Being Taken – We are pursuing legal action against Eimran Khan and his fraudulent event.

Official BTOES Event Details – Compare for Yourself

For clarity, BTOES next takes place in May 2026 in Orlando. There is no BTOES event in 2025. You can verify our legitimate event details here:

What Should You Do If You Are Listed as a Speaker or Sponsor?

If you find yourself listed on the fraudulent website, take immediate action:

  1. Demand Immediate Removal – Contact them and formally request your name to be removed.
  2. Involve Your Legal Team – If they fail to remove your name, involve legal representation.
  3. Warn Your Network – Inform colleagues, industry contacts, and other potential attendees to avoid this scam.

Final Warning: Do Not Engage With This Fraudulent Event

Eimran Khan’s attempt to mislead the industry is an unethical act of deception. If you are an industry professional, speaker, sponsor, or potential attendee, avoid this fraudulent event at all costs. Engaging with this scam could damage your credibility and align you with legal proceedings that will follow.
