"Without the Conferences and Events team at Imperial College, it would have been much more difficult to pull together our 2018 Student Conference. From day one they were happy to advise and answer any queries on the logistics of the day, whether that be a matter of catering, location or equipment needed. The event went without a hitch and I’m certain that’s down to the teams' efficiency, competency and thoroughness in wanting to achieve a great job. Without a doubt, I’d happily use this service again.”
