"Your team is world class and the attendees had a beautiful connection with each other and with you. I appreciate your time and effort and am grateful to have been included."
Dr. Andrew Goldsmith
The accessibility of the planners and thoughtful approach to networking meant we were truly on the radar.
"This was a fantastic way to be scouted! DSIx was such a fantastic way to be scouted. I even had an event planner reach out from watching on Facebook! Winning (Planner's Choice) and landing three speaking contracts was icing on the cake, because the real prize is the connection and support from all the other amazing speakers in this community. "
Karen “The OSHA Lady” Daw
What an inspiring event!
"I'm incredibly grateful for this fantastic opportunity to connect with fellow speakers and create a powerful 10-minute video of my keynote. The challenge of condensing my insights into a brief format was powerful, and I’m thrilled with the feedback received. Highly recommend this event. "
