Testimonials

Educator

I was very impressed by this event in terms of the venue, organisation and networking possibilities and I was delighted to have a large summer booking confirmed before I even got to the airport. Since then two more groups from different agents have confirmed for 2019. This was my second ICEF event, and I have since signed up for three more over the coming year. Thanks to everyone in the ICEF team!
