RPL won the contract to support PizzaExpress with their annual global conference which had traditionally always been held in London. Several regional venues were propose and PE finally opted to use Manchester Central.

The format of the day included a hugely interactive and engaging Expo followed by sharp and focussed plenary sessions. Guest speaker Dr Graeme Codrington shared his vision for the next decade.

A sumptuous Gala Dinner featured emotive recognition and the 800 + delegates partied into the night with bespoke cocktails, a live party band and guest DJ Jo Whiley.

The success of this event prompted PE to appoint RPL to support them on other projects and their 2019 conference.
