From the 6^th-8^th October Emma and Natalie attended the exclusive Fast Forward Forum 2019 – a once in a lifetime ‘anti-conference’ with some of the world’s brightest minds! The Book Publicist have been working with the Fast Forward Forum for the past year to publicise both the event and the Fast Forward Files book. We invited journalists along as guests to the conference to help spread the world about this once in a lifetime event. With multiple interviews, features and write-ups in Director, Forbes, BA Business Life and Management Today – the event was a huge hit. The three days were packed with absorbing talks, thought-provoking questions and stimulating debates.
