Feedback
Very well organized, availability, flexibility and support at the top!
I've been coming to the Smart Energy event since 2013. The quality is always very high, both in the conference sessions and in the facilities and general organisation. Particularly goog for such a resonable price!
A very worthwhile day, in terms of both quality of the speakers and the networking opportunities,
Excellent and informative day! A welcome opportunity to make or renew contacts.
Bravo to the organisers for their choice of speakers, particularly those who have a somewhat broader vision and enable us to think differently.
You've succeded in finding new input for every edition, even though Smart ENergy is the theme for many conferences, which sometimes repeat one another. Well done!
Congratulations for this day, which allowed many fruitful exchanges and the opportunity to hear top specialists in their respective fields.
