“Jam packed sessions and programme, but also
opportunities for networking at a great veune! Well done!”
Dining and networking at the conference
“Just talking with your peers is the best
knowledge you can learn”
“Speed dating with the banks was really rushed, need more time.” “More time to network would be beneficial.” “I know people have to travel, but the conference could have gone longer on the
last day.” “The dinner seemed to not have enough going on.” “Stalls, not enough information or information provision.” “Only one day for outside participants to attend is not enough for networking” “More time needs to be allocated for questions and answers.” “The same old sad wheeled out presenters and boring celeb types make up a
large part of the conference as usual, oh those who are worshipped!”

to faces”

and compliment helpful workers face to face.”
“It was all very valuable and I learnt so very much indeed”

and the amount of advice out there for financial counsellors.”
“I felt welcomed.”
