PIANC MMX

“We were delighted at the reception our international delegates received at the recent PIANC MMX Congress in Liverpool. With PIANC UK hosting over 500 delegates from 41 countries we were proud to offer British hospitality and culture at its best. Mills Media delivered a world class congress in all respects and the feedback from delegates and partners alike has been excellent.”

PIANC UK “Your contribution to the Total Policing Awards process has been immense.Your flexibility on the day and support was greatly appreciated and your overall professionalism has contributed significantly to the success of the event.” Merseyside Police “From the initial scripts through filming in some difficult conditions to the final production your professionalism gave us the confidence that the end product would be what we wanted. We were not disappointed. Our complex brief for the introductory film was well understood and interpreted.” Viridor Laing (Greater Manchester) Ltd “We have worked with Mills Media on a number of projects over the last few years and have always found them willing to adapt to our requirements, delivering excellent results every time with both speed and efficiency.” Muller Dairy “We thought we’d seen every shot of the Eden Project - your fresh approach to photographing our visitor attraction has surprised and delighted us. Mills Media worked every photo opportunity to the maximum and experimented with new angles and took some creative risks that really paid off.” Eden Project “As with our previous conference, the team worked hard to ensure that the production in the main plenary session, and the AV in both the workshop rooms and exhibition zone, provided the best possible experience for our delegates.” Telecare Services Association
