Bio
Elena Dimitrova
Gavin is an excellent event marketer with a strategic vision for all events he's working on, and also very organised with good attention to detail. Hope we get to work together again in the future!
Maria Harper
Gavin directly reported into me for nearly two years and was a pleasure to work with. He has, what I believe is so important in a brilliant marketer - passion, curiosity and team spirit. He delivered one of Reed’s biggest events, Offshore Europe, in the face of many challenges. The show wouldn’t have been as successful as it was without his new ideas, continual analysis and pure hard work. I learnt a lot from Gavin and would recommend him highly!
