This year’s ‘sold out’ Business Day at Bridling Spa was hailed as the best yet and FEO as always added an entrepreneurial buzz to the day. Next year’s event will take place on 9th June 2023 so save the date in your diary if you would like to be part of it.
Here’s some of the fantastic feedback we received from our guests:
A massive thank you for arranging our tickets for Friday. It was great to see everyone there in person. I had a buzz leaving the event, which in all honestly you don’t get from the Team/Zoom equivalents. Well done to the team for FEO’s involvement in the day!
Thanks very much for inviting me to be your guest at Friday’s event. I had a great time, made some useful connections as well as reconnecting with people I hadn’t seen in ages.
A great day on many levels, be it, the ‘normality’ of being around business colleagues again, the quality of the speakers or the genuine team spirit that I sensed from the members of FEO once again.
Thanks for the ticket for the Brid Spa, had a very worthwhile and informative day, Sir John Jones was amazing.
Sir John Jones stole the show. Not sure anyone would disagree.
Fantastic day spent amongst industry leaders exploring ideas catching up with some old connections, and making new ones too. The speakers were varied and informative and tabled a lot of ideas for further thought.
I’m very grateful to FEO for arranging my ticket, I left energised with a refreshed energy to push our business forward. 10/10
To have the day sponsored by FEO was a highlight and as a proud member I was lucky enough to be at this event. Looking forward to next year’s now!’
A great venue, an excellent array of speakers and panel discussions and a brilliant opportunity to network with a really diverse selection of businesses.
A really well organised and enjoyable event that I will definitely be signing up for again next year
As always with The Business Day, I came away inspired, encouraged and uplifted.
My first business day and I was absolutely blown away with it all from the second I stepped foot on the red carpet. I was grateful to those who sensed my awkwardness and made the effort to engage and ease me in.
I thought yesterday was great success for the region. The speakers were thought provoking and powerful, topical and well balanced. The highlight for me was listening to Sir John Jones
Just a quick note of thanks for today. First time I’ve seen Sir John Jones - now I know why you have always spoken so highly. A thoroughly enjoyable day, thanks again!
It felt wonderful to meet so many FEO members in once place and to be able to relax and enjoy everything the day offered
Giles Brandreth was a brilliantly quick and witty MC who anchored the interviews so well with the likes of the brilliant Sir John Jones and the incredibly thought-provoking Noreena Hertz. The theme this year was around the ‘soft’ skills of leadership with an emphasis on the post-covid rebuilding of community and team within our businesses.
It was a fantastic day with some great speakers. We had so much fun on the cash catcher!
Business day at the Spa is always inspirational, exciting and full of like minded people who want to create a forward thinking business world
It was so good to be back together again with the FEO crew at The Business Day. The team creates a fun atmosphere and provides speakers to inspire and motivate the audience.
I loved Sir John Jones and wish that his message of total positivity could be felt by every young person as early in life as possible.
Although I hadn’t followed Jo Malone previously, I was moved by her story and super impressed by her passion and work ethic.
I always leave The Business Day totally buzzing - being there with FEO feels like I’m part of something special.
