Case Study
The Client
Working directly for The Leith Agency but specifically on their client Business Gateway, part of Scottish Enterprise.
The Brief
To target key client groups, those with an interest in setting up their own business, that were currently under-represented.
The Solution
A programme of generic, high profile, regional events across 3 locations in Scotland although initial objective was to produce one event.
The Results
1,223 visitors, 44 exhibitors, 3 key speakers who are established and well-known entrepreneurs in Scotland – and a huge saving on the overall budget!
"The events took place in three locations over the course of three weeks and involved a high level of detailed planning, co-ordination and management on the day. Claire's attention to detail, her extensive event management experience and knowledge of the marketplace as well her responsiveness to issues that did arise all combined to make our events a big success. On top of that Claire was a pleasure to work with."
