international Meetings, events & travel

Another superb performance from Banks Sadler! Our 2011 conference was deemed the best yet; a combination of great venue, great content and great work from the Banks Sadler team.

As part of Allergan's ongoing Strategic Supplier Partnering programme, the traditional full-service events agency model has been deconstructed to decouple specific tasks to the most relevant partners, for example creative, travel, logistics and venue-finding.

After a full market tender, we selected Banks Sadler for sole venue-finding because their thoroughness to the sourcing process and ongoing supplier base optimisation represented the best possible commercial and quality outcome for our bookers.

This was backed up by solid references, a great client list and a personable team fitting well within the culture of Allergan.

There are many agencies in the marketplace today who claim that they are first class in delivering incentives and customer meetings. Whilst this may be true, Banks Sadler proven solid record, can definitely prove this.

One of the measures that Lilly use when appointing suppliers (apart from budgetary, level of expertise, knowledge of the industry) is 'can we work with them?', 'are they down to earth?'....and for Lilly, this is the icing on the cake.

Their flexibility, professionalism, sense of humour, knowledge of the industry, attention to detail, determination to deliver 'gold standard' programmes is second to none. This is also matched by their very competitive management fees they have in place.

The Senior Leadership Team, in particular the General Manager and the Sales Director, feel that Banks Sadler are not only a 'safe pair of hands' but a hold them in high regard and would not hesitate to work with them.
