You should all run your own events as there are loads of things you can do to honour people that work in an industry that’s not represented or the only events are a bit formal. And Mulley Comms just happens to have a nomination and judging system that you can use.
Want to be a sponsor for the 2016 Sockies or a sponsor at another Mulley Comms event? sponsorship@mulley.ie
