Testimonials
I just wanted to express my thanks to your team for a great conference last week. Louise was absolutely fantastic in organising the event and dealt with all the practicalities wonderfully well. She was also calm and reassuring at just the right times. I cannot praise her highly enough.
Carolyn Pike, Association of Legal Practitioners Conference 2019
I can't thank Louise enough for her professionalism, enthusiastic approach and fantastic organisational skills. Without her help the conference would not have been the huge success it was. She is a pleasure to work with and I heartily recommend her services to support your conference or event.
Keith Portman, Deputy Director of Academic Affairs, HEFI conference 2019
Louise’s organization, diligent preparation and clear guidance to presenters allowed us to facilitate an excellent event which ran smoothly throughout… For any academic staff at the University of Birmingham planning on hosting a similar conference or workshop, we would highly recommend employing the services of the Conference and Events team.
Professor Dr Gregor Leckebusch, 8th European Windstorm Workshop 2019
