“
Extremely valuable, the Richmond event always stands above the rest for me. So well organised, the right mix of vendor engagement, networking, great guest speakers and self development. I love the variety of vendors that are present at the event, many of which I would not have the opportunity to speak to normally.

— Head of Information Security, Whitbread

“ A very enjoyable and engaging 2 days that was superbly organised in a perfect venue. There was a great mix of keynote speeches, discussion groups and one to one sessions with relevant and innovative suppliers
