What attendees say
- "The event was outstanding. After a couple of years of no in-person events, taking an exhibition stand and having the opportunity to deliver a pitch has made such an impact on our pipeline."
Karena Vaughan, Sales Director, ESG and Spatial Finance at GHGSat
- "The quality of conversations between Shift data scientists and attendees interested in what Shift is all about was truly top notch."
Jeff Manricks, UK Sales Director at Shift Technology
- "We saw a lot of people at the Booth and a lot of participants for the panel even if it was at the very end of the event."
Lucile Beaurain, International Client Executive at Akur8
- "It is great to engage in conversation that we otherwise couldn’t have… we come here in one day and we are able to meet 10, 20, 30 different potential clients, leads or partners."
Nikolai Hack, COO at Exo Investing
- Events like this are great for start-ups to be with some of the bigger older institutions that may not be as agile… putting the two dynamic and static groups of the industry together and getting them to have an engaged conversation.
Monica Sasso, Director Head of Prospecting Strategy at Deutsche Bank
- "It’s a great educational piece… I have seen a lot of great companies doing very exciting things."
Lucy Dunnet, Investment Advisor at Berenberg
- "I thought it was a great event. The best I have been to in 2019. A good balance of presentations and panels."
Richard Day, Underwriting and Pricing Director at Hastings Direct
- "We were very happy with the event… more than happy to join any future event."
