How helpful did you find the SWIFT events team?
Very well organized. One of the best in the many years that I’ve attended conferences and trade shows.
Brilliant conference, thoroughly enjoyed the speakers, panels and meeting colleagues from across the business. Really well organised, great hotel and food!
I really enjoyed the supplier’s booths and chatting with them about their products. The food was excellent. Every meal was top notch
It’s hard to just single one [session] out, they were all outstanding.
Love seeing case studies on construction to see what other folks are doing and how they are managing construction on their sites.
Loved it! Want to attend next year too.
