Event Recap πŸ’«

Last week, we accompanied over 500 delegates on the NMBS One Industry Conference in Limassol, Cyprus, at the brand-new City of Dreams resort. πŸ‡¨πŸ‡Ύ

As a biannual event, it truly lived up to its reputation with a three-day jam-packed itinerary that included a welcome dinner, engaging networking activities, insightful conference sessions, dine arounds and a grand finale gala dinner.

This year was especially noteworthy as the event had its very own bespoke app. The app was a huge asset, providing delegates with all the information they needed, from hotel maps and speaker info to session times and so much more. πŸ“±

The conference was all about forging strong industry connections and envisioning the future. It was a huge success, the guests made the most of the sunny destination and left feeling motivated and inspired. πŸ‘

CEO Sleepout πŸ’€

Last week, Holly and Meg spent a night sleeping outdoors, an experience many do not have the privilege to choose.

During the CEO Sleepout, they gained first-hand insight into the challenges faced by the homeless community, by experiencing what it’s like for just one night. Personal stories from people who have experienced homelessness were also shared. These stories highlighted the ongoing struggle for stability and the complex circumstances that contribute to homelessness.

Well done Holly and Meg for taking part, helping raise awareness and an incredible Β£2,244 for a range homeless charities in the UK. πŸ’™
