IET Member looking for help to set up a presentation in Edinburgh in May.

I have been in contact with Gareth Wood Director of Cassana Technologies Corporation. he is looking for help to organise a presentation on Light Railway in Edinburgh in May.

Gareth was wondering if the local network could offer some advice. I offered to talk to Napier Uni if they could offer access to the facilities for the presentation. Anybody on the board of the local network available to offer some guidance?

  • Olivier,


    Your request was discussed at our last committee meeting on May 15.


    In principle, we can provide financial support to hold a meeting in a local hotel.  This requires some forward planning, approximately 1 - 2 months.


    We are completing our 2017-2018 programme year and the 2018-2019 program begins in September.  Therefore, we should begin planning for a meeting from September onwards.


    May I remind you that we need an abstract for the event and a biography for the speaker.


    Thank you

    Jack

    Oliver,


    It would be easier if we start communicating via email.  This way I can copy other members of our committee.


    Our logistics are; 1) determine day of the week and location (if central, probably a hotel with associated costs; 2)  Meeting best on Tues/Wed/Thurs evening arrive 6:30 pm for 7:00 pm start); 3) estimate number of attendees;  4) arrange publicity around 4 weeks before event (IET website is good source);  5) we would need an abstract for the event and a biography for the speaker; and 6) does Gareth have a budget for the event?.


    My email address is dempsey.jack@gmail.com.


    Kind regards
