Ep 3: In conversation with Richard John, COO at Realise

Building Awesome Events (An Event Marketing Podcast)

If you're someone who has found comfort in the wealth of streamed content delivered through the pandemic by platforms such as Amazon, Netflix and Disney, then you'll not want to miss this hilarious yet insightful chat about what event organisers and meeting planners can learn from the best brains in the entertainment world.

In this fireside chat we feature:
