"We have worked with Athena for a number of years, the relationships they have developed with the senior clinicians on behalf of Pfizer that we work with have been outstanding and helps to develop a number of initiatives that we feel are best in class. These include the Excellence in Oncology Awards including logistics and management of the awards ceremony and judging day itself, the engagement with the Oncology Forum faculty and organisation of this well respected event which continues to go from strength to strength, so far that this year the meeting was oversubscribed with a number of individuals not able to get tickets.

Athena have also managed our international conference/congress logistics and they have been outstanding in that area, constantly getting unsolicited thank you’s from grateful customers for their professionalism and service.

I can certainly wholeheartedly recommend Athena as an excellent agency to work with."

Rob Day - Oncology Director Pfizer Ltd

"I am writing to you with feedback from my senior management team on the work programme you have been leading for us. It is excellent.

Your input is making a huge difference and has proven invaluable in accelerating our skills and challenges our culture. We are clearly seeing the results of this in both sales and company performance.

The feedback and enthusiasm amongst the team is highly positive. I'm confident that our client teams are changing the way that they view and deliver to their clients, thus having an impact on figures.

I would not hesitate to endorse Andrew Milbourn and Athena for any team building events that you are running."

Paul Frampton - Managing Director - MPG and Media Contacts

"Athena is a superb agency to work with. For several years I have hosted some of their high-profile award ceremonies. Their professionalism and attention to every detail have helped make my job so much easier. Audiences are always assured of a first rate show or meeting.

Oh, and Athena make preparation and performance great fun too! I cannot recommend Athena highly enough"

NICHOLAS OWEN - Broadcaster & Journalist

"I am delighted to provide a reference for Athena Meetings & Events. I have worked with Sharon Poole & Athena for several years on numerous projects involving educational events in oncology. For the last six years I have been the Chairman of the Oncology Forum, which is an annual educational event for the oncologists drawn from across the UK. Sharon and her team co-ordinate the faculty to draw up a programme and arrange for all the invitations of speakers then organize the attendance of over 200 delegates. Athena arrange all the logistics of the meetings and are meticulous in their planning. Every meeting that has been organised by Athena (and there have been several apart from the Oncology Forum meetings) have been enormous successes and this is mainly due to the extremely hard work that is undertaken by Sharon and her team.

If you are organising a meeting I would recommend Athena to you without any hesitation. We would certainly not consider running such an event with any other agency"
