I have worked with Ray on events for well over 10 years. As head of video systems I was responsible to Ray. I have always found his attention to detail refreshing. He was also very willing to listen and take on news ideas for the events.
These events have varied in size from 9000 people over 2 venues over 1 weekend to 1000 people for a 1 day meeting. Every event was well planned by Ray so therefore well executed. His Knowledge of event Health and Safety is very practical not just theory based!
