Thank you DKC International for the outstanding organisation of the Emerging Economists program in 2007 and 2008. The inaugural series involved a lot of set-up work and coordination. The venue on the executive floor of the Reserve Bank of Australia and the organisation of important guest speakers including past prime ministers, government and business leaders, has been extraordinary.  The organisation and management has attended to detail in a timely manner so that all events have run very smoothly and within budget. We have found staff to be courteous and efficient and what really stands out is their ability to communicate effectively and professionally, overcoming any obstacles as they arise. Based on my experience of working with events management companies, I find DKC’s level of service exceptional. We have consequently entered into an exciting and innovative future joint project with DKC, the Australian Economic Forum.

I have taken the opportunity to write an unsolicited testimonial about my experience working with Corinne Kemp of DKC international.

I recently met Corinne in her role as the event manager for an intensive 2 week International course being run out of Canberra. I was teaching on the course and had the pleasure of working with a true professional. At all times Corinne knew what was happening and who needed to know  what. Corinne was prompt in checking up that all was working as it should. She dealt with the hotel staff in a polite and truly genuine way. Corinne did all of her work in a friendly and relaxed manner. She was able to build up a good rapport with the students on the course who were international guests with many issues concerning visas and other complicated matters.

I highly recommend the services of DKC, and in particular Corinne, whom I would happily engage on further events.  Her excellent, efficient but low profile way of working made our course go very smoothly. She brings a delightful ease to the complicated tasks of managing people and resources that is a pleasure to witness.

I wish dkc all the best in the future and hope that we are able to retain their services again soon.

Congratulations on a fabulous night. You and your team did a great job of ensuring the WRD Foundation Dinner was a huge success.  Several of my colleagues commented on “how good the event was” and believe me they have been to their fair share of dinners.

The entertainment was fantastic, Andrew was brilliant as per usual and to have such a quality line up for the debate was sensational as well as extremely funny, and I guess to top it off, the words of Kevin Maher were hard hitting which I think resonated across so many people within the room.

The campaign has certainly come a long way in such a short period of time and it is partly thanks to you and your team for ensuring the dinner has and will continue to be such a huge success
