      I am currently advising the Institute on how to coordinate its events as well as running some events from start to finish. I am able to run up to 4 events per day with major partners. These are political events and include public seminars, private roundtables and workshops. I run in-person, hybrid and virtual events. I promote the events via a CRM system (Keap by Infusionsoft) and social media. I coordinate the entire events process including: securing speakers, marketing, logistical set up, overseeing AV and ensuring sponsorship deliverables. I have worked with a range of partners including British Red Cross, Amazon, Meta, Salesforce, Lloyds, Mastercard, The Wellcome Trust, Deloitte, Imperial College London, PA Consulting Group, EY, SAP UK, Microsoft UK, Barclays, Nesta and others. Funding received from these partners is generally £5,001 – £10,000 per event.
