About the event
Who is this for?
As every event includes a 1:1 brief before and after, we tailor every event to the audience of just 10 people meaning we welcome attendees who have no idea where to start right through to companies who have hired their 100th person with a criminal past.
There is something for everyone and the difference in experiences only adds to the engaging conversation.
