Meeting Summaries from MarComms and HR

Our Marketing and Communications Working Group met on the 26th September 2019, at the Bournemouth International Centre. With amazing views of the seafront, 9 marketing professionals shared their latest endeavours. 

The chair, Kate Simpson (Marketing Director, BDC) led the group through a packed agenda which included the results from the group's Benchmarking survey, exploration into student placements/apprenticeships, death of a monarch, venue updates, attendance at the Festival of Marketing and the group's plans for 2020. The meeting closed with a tour from Ben Mutton (Sales Manager) of the BIC venue and Bournemouth Pavilion Theatre.

Our evening social was facilitated by Business Events Bournemouth, with drinks at the Sky Bar, a wonderful dinner at Neo and then onto a Virtual Reality experience at the VR Centre!  Thank you to the team at BHLive for their generosity and taking care of us.
