Conference & Events Testimonials

I just want to thank you for hosting the NASMA event so brilliantly.  Everyone who attended was impressed both with the venue and facilities. The organisation from start to finish was so easy and stress free, which makes a very welcome change to past events I have organised – so the behind the scenes work is really appreciated!

Your conference staff were outstanding and a real credit. It is true to say their professionalism was a talking point of the UUK conference. My thanks to them all.

Our academics, administrators, ambassadors and MEETinLEEDS have been one team for the Food Colloids Conference who have had the same passion, drive and determination to build a high profile event.

The MEETinLEEDS team not only understood our vision, but were key in building a strategy and delivering an event that raised the profile of our School, Faculty and University.

On behalf of the organising committee for the 63rd conference of the Association of Hispanists of Great Britain and Ireland, I would like to thank the MEETinLEEDS team for helping ensure that everything ran smoothly.

They exceeded expectations in terms of professionalism, flexibility and personal amiability. Numerous delegates comments on how impressed they were with the organisation, praise for which I quite happily but unfairly took the credit.

In terms of logistics and organization, a tremendous job was done by MEETinLEEDS, whose professional help and experience made APTS possible

Thank you and all of your team for your excellent support at the UUK Annual Conference. We were impressed by the professionalism and friendliness of your staff, for whom nothing was too much trouble. The accommodation and food were extremely good and all these things combined made for a very successful event.

A huge thank you to MEETinLEEDS for delivering such a great conference! I enjoyed working with you very much, and I’m really happy with how smoothly & professionally our event was run. Perfect!

Every year, the Leeds University conference and events team provide us with a brilliant service when we hold our graduation ceremony. The venue is good value for money and the team are extremely helpful – nothing is ever too much trouble and the level of support we receive helps us to ensure one of our flagship events always runs smoothly. I can’t sing their praises highly enough.

The lovely ladies in Parkinson Court were so accommodating at the recent Graduate Jobs and Internship Fair. Their welcoming smiles and excellent customer service skills really made the day.

Thank you for all your help with the bookings and catering for the 3rd University of Leeds Student Education Conference. I am pleased to tell you that we had our best attendance yet of 447 delegates and the feedback has been excellent! I would just like to say a big thank you to you and your team for the smooth running and professional service before and on the day. It really does make all the difference.

I just wanted to send a heartfelt thank you for all of your help, advice, time and general conference wisdom over the last few months, especially the last two days. The conference would seem to have been a success, in no small part to the role of you and your team. I will be recommending you to anyone who asks and anyone who doesn’t!

Storm Jameson Court was of the highest standard that I have personally seen in University halls…

I would like to thank you and your colleagues for making the conference so successful. The catering was perfect, the delegates were relaxed and comfortable and everyone was impressed by the Hall and surroundings. Thank you for making our visit a very memorable and successful one

When there is a commercial need to introduce a business or industry to the University our experience shows this is best done on campus through University House. It provides a quality service, great cuisine and an experience customers will cherish and remember.

Amazing, flawless conference organisation. Glad we chose MEETinLEEDS for our #ICFS10 venue.

Event Management Testimonials

Your attention to detail astounds me – from when we first muted the idea with you Anthony until John’s team put the last plate on the table – everything has been superb. The presentation of the room on Saturday was tasteful and offered the right tone to the day.

The conference is well supported by MEETinLEEDS, the University Conference team: Leeds is one of the few city venues that have good disabled access for a high number of people who use wheelchairs and plenty of good quality accommodation to meet their needs.
