5. Don’t just take our word for it,
this is what our clients have to say:
“We have used CBR a number of times for number
customer events and we found it to be concise and
innovate way to really get up close and personal
with the customers that we are looking to embrace”
Chief Operating Officer,
Hitachi Data Systems
“We had worked with CBR on several lunchtime
discussions, but this was the first time we had been
part of the CBR Dining Club, and it was great.
There was real discussion and heated debate both
between the panel and the customers and between
customers, which was excellent to see. From a
business point of view we want to be part of evenings
that benefit both ourselves and the customers, and
that was a perfect example, especially as we are
progressing opportunities following on from the
event.”
