A highly respected and multi-award-winning event professional, Adam has been at the forefront of innovation in the sector since 2003, providing cutting-edge event technology through his company Showplans initially, and more recently as Director Digital Products at Freeman.

Alongside his in-depth understanding of how technology can create meaningful and positive connections and his commitment to driving event innovation.

Pilar is fascinated by the opportunities that technology brings to make the world of work a better place. And seeing as we spend more than 70% of our waking time at work, what better way of helping make the world a better place?

After training face to face and facilitating team-away days, in 2010 Pilar started to look for non-location-specific opportunities to help people develop. Wanting to visit her parents in Madrid more often and having met her future husband in Amsterdam meant that limiting her work to her UK base was no longer an option.

In 2013, she landed a freelance job with a training company, delivering accredited Management and Leadership qualifications online. There she started igniting discussion on the forum and growing the webinar program. Far from finding the shift to the online space daunting, Pilar quickly adapted her ability to create a sense of purpose and unity to the online space.

Having run a small organization herself, Pilar understands the importance of people feeling valued and engaged at work. Changing the tools and the location of our work shouldn’t impact our ability to work closely together. However, we do need to shift our mindset and let go of old ways.
