A strong speaker platform combines industry-relevant business presentations with a high-profile keynote speaker – this year Alastair Campbell gives Conference his spin on events. Meanwhile another notable speaker who retains high-level Government contacts, Dennis Turner, formerly of HSBC Bank, will present an informed view of the economic outlook.
The Conference also offers delegates a chance to meet fellow suppliers, distributors, manufacturers, operators and consultants. This year the Thursday options feature a golf tournament and the Mercedes World off-road and on-road driving experience. The informal dinner that evening will be a strong networking event including fund-raising for Hospitality Action.
On the Friday the main speaker programme is followed by the Gala Dinner, featuring the FCSI Sustainable Catering Equipment Award and the Outstanding Contribution to the Catering Equipment Industry Award.
Tickets cost from £665 for the two-day event, which include two nights accommodation, the informal and gala dinner and a place at the conference. Tickets for day delegates to the conference, for Friday 14 November only, cost £205. CESA members each receive one free day delegate place per company.
