Feedback from events

“I haven’t seen a DE&I event so well attended before and at such a senior level across both genders. It was also good to see so much engagement and energy in the room. Well done and thank you for everything you do.”

“Congratulations for a successful event; raising awareness of the importance of #InspiringInclusion in our industry. Amazing organisation and attendance across all levels from member firms of CREFCE and a great panel discussion. Congrats!”

"Thank you very much for organising the brilliant mentoring event yesterday. The feedback heard from both Mentors and Mentees was very positive and everybody mentioned that the mentoring sessions had passed in a heartbeat, as the conversations held were so interesting. The networking event was also very successful and allowed us to catch up with several contacts in an informal and friendly environment."
