"In our personal experience, Shanna was exceptionally organised with excellence in customer service always at the forefront. It was an absolute pleasure to have worked with Shanna, her ability to always be accessible when needed is a credit to her as we were often not her only client. Not that we would of known by her dedication and performance to deliver an outstanding NEDC19. There was not one question or concern that Shanna could not answer and it was evident that the delegates saw her as an extremely competent coordinator. We thank Shanna for her commitment and professionalism which ultimately led to the incredible success that was the 2019 National Economic Development Conference!"
- Matt Grant, Leandro Lopez Digon and Georgie Clarke: NEDC19 City of Adelaide project working group
"I would highly recommend Shanna Sheldrick and the Premier Event Concepts team to manage a conference similar to ours. We contracted Shanna's services for the first time for our 2019 conference, which attracted around 550 delegates to participate over 3 days of conferencing, with 7 concurrent sessions and major international speakers. Shanna has remained highly responsive and professional in all of her dealings with me and the entire team - of which we have 50 or so working on the conference. We have been so impressed that we have contracted Shanna for our 2020 event".
- Claire Howe: CEO, Australasian College of Road Safety
"Shanna did an excellent job as manager of the 2019 Australasian Road Safety Conference. Most impressive was her responsiveness whenever anything was needed.

Everyone I spoke to who was involved in organising the event similarly spoke in the highest terms about the job Shanna did".

Shanna's knowledge of the industry and wide range of contacts is amazing. With the myriad of things to go into organising a conference, Shanna has the ability to see a clear path that will get you from start to finish. We had high expectations and Shanna has exceeded them".
