Testimonials

Professor Frank Lerino - Australian & New Zealand Society of Nephrology (ANZSN)

Thank you, and your Conference Design team, for a highly professional and well-run fully Virtual Conference. I was very impressed with flexibility and adaptability from our usual Face-to-Face Conference to a fully Virtual Meeting in 2020 due to COVID which appeared “seamless” – but I know that this was all due to all the expertise and background work by your team which resulted in a very successful meeting. Look forward to working together again in 2021.

Professor Rick S. - Australian and New Zealand Society of Criminology 2016 Conference

You are the most efficient organisers I have ever met!

Darren Mathewson, CEO – Aged & Community Services Tasmania 2015

Just a short note of thanks for you and your team’s great work on this event. The professionalism, organisation and calmness of you and your team is top notch and provides our organisation great confidence in the success of our key event. We look forward to continuing our relationship with your organisation.

Dr Bill Baker – Australian Society for Music Education

The level of support we received from Conference Design has been better than we could ever have hoped for and their professionalism in all aspects of their operation has been exemplary. Always willing to go ‘over and above’ what we had expected … I believe their strength lies in their great leadership of an exceptional team of staff, all of whom recognise and understand the needs of their clients.

Professor Rob White – University of Tasmania - Australian & New Zealand Society of Criminology Conference 2016

As Convenor of the Australian & New Zealand Society of Criminology Conference 2016 I would like to commend the team at Conference Design for making this event so special and successful. There were some 320 delegates over the two and a half day period, from over 15 different countries. From start to finish, the planning and operations were exceptional, with friendly and professional service provided at all times. Throughout the course of the conference there are always little glitches that occur – whether this is someone wanting greater variety of vegetarian food, an unexpected medical event, or the presence of unforeseen ‘extra’ people at the conference dinner. What matters in these situations is how people respond and I am pleased to say that Conference Design was exceptional in listening carefully, assessing the issues and offering remedies as quickly as possible. This is the sign of really good conference organisers. If we ever host this conference again, then I would not hesitate to use Conference Design.

Mary Ann Seow - ISANA: International Education Association, Project Officer

I would also like to take this opportunity to thank Conference Design for the excellent work both pre-conference and as support during the four days. As usual, flawless organisation and conducted with humour and infinite patience. The Virtual platform was easy to interact with and all features worked well.

I loved how the platform and the team took our needs to replicate the importance of peer to peer networking, delivery of presentations and commentary throughout the sessions.  The layout and technical aspects were logical and user-friendly – so reassuring tor the Luddites amongst us!

I hope to see some of these features kept when we return to f2f conferences to expand and engage with delegates who can’t for whatever reason fly to the conference destination.

Professor Maria Byrne, University of Sydney - 4th International Symposium on the Ocean in a High-CO2 World 2016

Thanks to you and your team for such a great conference. You were just so accommodating, friendly and enthusiastic. In all my years attending these events – Conference Design is the best conference organiser that I have ever come across – now twice this year. Species on the Move was also fantastic.

I’ve been meaning to write to you all to say how impressed I was – and everyone was – at the preparation and running of the conference. You were certainly a godsend for Paul and the local organising group. Not only could we not have done it without you, we were actually able to enjoy the event in a way that is often not possible!
