Why you need to be there
The event initially set out to help marketers to build new relationships and connections with each other, and to learn new things to help you do your job better. However, our first four events have all been sell outs and the feedback from attendees there has been phenomenal. The feedback was that our events have helped in so many other ways - career development, referrals, collaborations, and work being sourced. We've also been able to help with finding attendees new marketing jobs!
Partners and sponsors
We really have to say a huge thank you to the Cornwall Chamber of Commerce, FibreHub, Thought Quarter, and Redrok for all their help, support, and commitment to getting this event off the ground.
Refunds
Refunds will not be possible if they are requested after Friday 15th March 2024. Sincere apologies for this, but on this date, I have to commit to various costs which I can not then recover.
