“As we are loading the last items of KingfoMarket 2017 onto the trucks, I wanted to take the time to pass my personal thankyou to the whole CCIB team. You have been both incredibly warm and understanding, whilst assisting greatly in the delivery of a very creative, but complicated, event!”
“The Congress was an extremely successful event with high satisfaction among participants, exhibitors, our Team and ESSKA (Board Members and Office Team).
We enjoyed an exceptional hospitality and working with the dedicated team at the CCIB, as they contributed to a great congress and happy clients”
“I say a big thank you to you and all the other CCIB team members who helped us to run a very successful meeting. We were all very impressed by the efficiency of the CCIB and the presentation of the rooms/poster boards etc ( a big thanks in particular to the audio-visual team who did not get anything wrong).
