ANNUAL REVIEW WELCOME
back to the much wanted and loved venue-based format next year at some point. With all the positive vaccine related news recently, this is thankfully looking more possible than ever. This year we have seen lots of words being regularly used such as Pandemic, unprecedented and pivot, however there is one I have used myself more than ever and that is Proud. I’m so Proud of the team, more so now than ever, everyone has worked so hard and really stepped up to the plate having to quickly learn new ways of doing things and doing jobs they never dreamt of and stepping out of their comfort zones most days. I am also proud of our sponsors who have all been so supportive of our new formats and quite often taking a real leap of faith and just taking our word on a new event format, that really is trust. Of course, our delegates who have also had to discover news ways to learn, engage with our content and make a big step to understanding new tech and new ways of watching our events. There have been many reasons to look back on 2020 with sadness but there are also several things that have forced us to do things even better than ever and focus on the things that really do matter. The pace of change with never slowdown but perhaps the direction of focus might.
Every business is experiencing more change than ever, there never has been a more important time to come together, share our experiences. These industry conferences in whatever format they are really are platforms and the future of these industries.
We have shared with you in this 2020 review some of the fantastic kind words, complimentary feedback, and reports of our 3 annual flagship Annual Summits, we are delighted with how they went and the case study content this year is more valuable than ever, these events really have highlighted some real examples of how businesses have transformed, adapted, repositioned themselves and reflected on who they are and how they do things.
We would like to thank everyone for their fantastic support which is hugely appreciated. We wish you all a festive and safe Christmas period, and look forward to seeing you all in 2021. Warm Regards, Nicholas Rust – Managing Director
