John Cessford, Marketing Manager For Farmers UK Ltd –
James was excellent and really easy to work with. He was very responsive to emails and his paper was really good and well received
Oliver Marlow, Head of External Relations, Eastbourne College –
Dr Bellini provided an outstanding keynote speech at our recent Heads Conference looking at how best to prepare young people for a rapidly changing world. He provided the perfect introductory overview of future developments for our delegates, and delivered his talk with humour and a wonderfully informal, engaging style. He is an academic who wears his scholarship lightly, and his years of broadcasting at the highest level allowed him to manage a facilitated discussion later with two of our other speakers with great skill.
