Hear what delegates have said about previous National Conferences

The regional stream was excellent, the topics were relevant and I was delighted to see the number of airports that attended those sessions.
A great conference with a great cross section of speakers. I took some valuable knowledge away with me – thank you.
It was really worthwhile to be able to catch up with some old faces and meet new ones. Great networking events.
