Record attendance for CECE Congress
Last month's CECE Congress, hosted by the CEA in York, drew an attendance of nearly 250 industry leaders, experts and guests. These included a record participation of UK based companies – and delegates from 16 countries worldwide, including Russia, Korea and Brazil. The event earned a whopping 89% "good or better" approval rating in a post event delegates' survey. Amongst the highest rated speakers were KHL Inaugural Lecturer Matthew Taylor (CEO, JCB), industry trends analysts David Phillips (Off-Highway Research) and Scott Hazelton (Global Insight). Top marks too for British Cycling team psychiatrist Dr Steve Peters who proved to be an informative and inspirational closing speaker – a suitable tonic after three days of economic and technical analysis. The Congress included two networking dinners; at the National Railway Museum and Castle Howard.
