Director, Leading Global Investment Bank, September, 2010
 
“Hugh has run our shooting programme extremely well. He has managed to organise and arrange what are complex events with groups of investment bankers, senior company executives, founders and owners of businesses; all very difficult constituencies. He has a strong attention to detail, is very efficient and we have had an amazing track record of success with no problems in any of the events he has arranged. His involvement has been from the very start with the delicate balance of ensuring progress with the very slow process of picking guests from extensive lists of potential invitees through to the coordinated inviting and guest list building process whilst ensuring the logistical support is faultless and flexible to accommodate the many different and often eclectic needs of our guests.

He could not have achieved this without being a thoroughly friendly, likeable person. He is completely trustworthy and has operated the process with very little supervision. I would not hesitate to use him again for similar events.”

     
   
Mr PS, Managing Director, Global Leading Investment Bank, April 2009
     
  “Many thanks to Dragon Live Events who helped to make our Emerging Markets Conference at the Mandarin Oriental a huge success. Hugh and the team were very efficient and professional throughout the run-up and during the conference.”

   
Sophie Heslop, LCF Edmond de Rothschild Securities Ltd, February 2009
     
“As the Global Learning Officer of the Investment Bank I was tasked with creating a Leadership culture changing initiative for our Managing Director population. We designed a very unique program in distant locations using multiple vendors and multi media- SUMMIT.

When looking for an event planning company to support this non typical classroom or conference we needed an out of the box thinker. We were thrilled to be introduced to Hugh at Dragon Events.

Hugh joined our team as a complete partner to our vision. He was resourceful, creative, and most important a pleasure to work with. He made any logistics challenge look easy and obstacles melted away. He treated our budget respectfully and looked to deliver under budget whenever possible.

He ran his team with strong communication, coordination and fun.

Hugh and Dragon exceeded our expectations. He would be my first call for our next project.”
