“In addition to the formalities of the day – presided over by the GA’s chair, Buy-From’s founder Louise Welsby –  it will be a great opportunity to meet the GA team and the wider national committee, as well as to network with other members and learn from our key industry speakers,” says PR and marketing manager Chris Workman. “Judging by our past live events, it also promises to be an enjoyable day out of the office, celebrating a great industry with peers.”

Chris continues: “Our previous AGMs have been an excellent way to network and forge new professional relationships, also allowing attendees to connect with the GA team and pose questions for our national committee.”

Tickets are complimentary and include lunch.
