The XSEM team are such a pleasure to work with – their dedication to ensuring we had a successful event was 2nd to none. This was my first time working so closely with the team and they did not disappoint!

The team are the best! Always on hand while we work, I’d recommend XSEM to any company needing assistance with planning and executing events!

The buzz around the event even led to a visit from the official Sri Lankan Government COP26 delegation who heard about the conference while attending the nearby summit in Glasgow and decided to find out more about the novel work being done by manufacturers to combat the climate emergency. It was the icing on the cake of an outstanding conference, one I believe will be a line in the sand for the Scottish manufacturing community.

NMIS Head of Communications

A very well organised and well-presented day. Highlights included the strategy session and the DEI panel session.

Event Attendee
