“We thought the format of the night was fab and way better than a lot of others we’ve attended – especially the entertainment and the band. It was a shame we didn’t win but fully appreciated those who did! And as you’re probably aware, a lot of us retail design agencies know each other so it was great to catch up with some old colleagues and peers!”
