What Our Members Are Saying

Steve Robertson, EmpathyWorks Leadership Consultancy
"I've really admired the 4theRegion events. They're really refreshing and, as other people have said, very inclusive... certainly different from the usual top-down conferences."

Steve Robertson, EmpathyWorks Leadership Consultancy

Sioned Jones, Swansea Building Society
"I've been on the scene now for nearly 40 years, and I have to say that's one of the best networking events that I attended last year at Parc y Scarlets... it’s a great event for professionals."

Sioned Jones, Swansea Building Society

Kathryn Bulson, Plantasia Tropical Zoo
"We really do feel the benefit of our membership in so many ways. Something always pops up from the events that you just never expect... I'm really happy to be a part of your community."

Kathryn Bulson, Plantasia Tropical Zoo

Charlotte Fulner, Neath Port Talbot Council
"Carmarthen Council reached out to us after a meeting about a particular qualification... we’ve now signed six people up to attend, and that's directly due to coming into this meeting."

Charlotte Fulner, Neath Port Talbot Council

Margot Greer, Activist & Connector
"The diagram you show about the mycelium layer - that means exactly what it does to me. All those layers under the soil are looking to see what they can send to others to keep everything in the biosystem alive, and I think that's really what you do."

Margot Greer, Activist & Connector

Gitti Coats, Haverhub
"This has been a year of breaking down communication barriers and finding new friends around the town, coming up with ideas together. 4theRegion seems to be a regional placemaking force for good, and I think that's really helped inspire us."

Gitti Coats, Haverhub

Stephanie Footman, Swansea University
"We feel that our role at the Natural Products Biohub is to bridge the gap between local industry and academia. I'm really excited to be working with 4theRegion and our collaboration going forward."

Stephanie Footman, Swansea University

Hilary Elliot, Environmental Advisor, DVLA
"I love the positivity that everything 4theRegion do. When you feel a bit down in the dumps, you read one of your newsletters and it just recharges your batteries and makes you ready to start fighting again."

Hilary Elliot, Environmental Advisor, DVLA

Elfed Roberts, Pobl Group
"I think having this forum and the in-person events that you have, you naturally forge links, make friends, you know, build relationships through that... it’s the single biggest reason for carrying on doing what you're doing."

Elfed Roberts, Pobl Group

Francesca Murphy, Penderyn Distillery
 "Actually, every single organisation, no matter what you do, links in some way, shape or form to another one... essentially joining 4theRegion opens the doors and opens avenues that you may not have known you need for your own company."

Francesca Murphy, Penderyn Distillery

Mark Rudge, Acorn by Synergie
"The events that you guys put on are probably the best I've ever been to. I really enjoy them... I just really, really enjoy the atmosphere around 4theRegion."

Mark Rudge, Acorn by Synergie

Angie Barnett, Global Business Development Manager
"With just attending one meeting, we got invited to attend the Soft Landings programme at the university... I didn't expect to have such an impact on a platform such as 4theRegion."

Angie Barnett, Global Business Development Manager
