Anna Green (Broadsword)

Managing Director

I’ve had a lot of guidance and coaching throughout my career, which has been invaluable for the success of my business and for my own professional development. Being with people who empower you to be your authentic self is so important. Caring for Broadsword’s people is my mission and bringing out the best in each and every person is rooted in our success, creating a healthy, open and caring environment where a diverse group can thrive. I really enjoyed extending the support I offer further afield as a mentor for EVCOM’s Realise Award.”

To speak freely is a fundamental human right. Speech is also fundamental to what we do as an agency.

The way large global businesses communicate has changed considerably in the last few years. Broadsword is at the cutting edge of global business events, with offices in London, Hong Kong and New York, we deliver creative, responsible strategic communications that engage audiences empowering them to find their voice, innovate and grow.

Our team build long-term, trusted client relationships because they care deeply about the success of the projects they deliver. We’re down-to-earth, approachable and practical people and we’re told our partnership spirit is what sets us apart from the rest.

Global CGO

“From the early days in my career, I have been incredibly fortunate to have access to talented people that are brilliant mentors. I have seen incredible value and I have learnt a huge amount. I thoroughly enjoy hearing perspectives, sharing any knowledge I have gained, and collaborating on what the future might hold.”

2Heads is a proudly independent, award winning, strategically minded and fiercely creative experiential agency. We take pride in what we do. It matters to us, it matters to our clients and it matters to our clients’ customers. We love using technology in bold and exciting ways. We have fun, always. Because if you’re enjoying yourself it’s not really work. We do right by the planet, taking responsibility for improving the sustainability of our industry.

We live by a set of values:

Energy: We go all in when it comes to supporting and developing our people, they come first. We get fired up about creating amazing experiences for our clients. We want to grab people’s attention and send them home a little different.

Integrity: We’re grown-ups and we act accordingly. That means treating everyone with respect and speaking up when the situation demands. We love saying yes, but we know when it’s time to say ‘no’.

Creativity: We use our imaginations to come up with original ideas. Then we execute them skilfully to great effect. Storytelling is ancient, but with today’s technology the sky’s the limit. Goodbye comfort zone, nice knowing you!

Liz Zutshi ( TTA)

Managing Director

At TTA, we look beyond the obvious to change minds and lives through events and experiences.

Events are one of the most powerful ways for brands to make and strengthen connections with colleagues, customers and communities.

That’s why we work with forward-thinking global organisations across the healthcare, corporate and non-profit sectors to change minds and lives through immersive events and virtual and hybrid experiences.

At a time when communication and collaboration have never been more crucial, we’re enabling clients to create versatile and sustainable programmes for effective in-person, virtual and hybrid delivery to participants worldwide.

With 15 year’s experience at TTA, most recently as Commercial Director with a remit to explore new growth areas for the company, I am passionate about combining new ideas and innovative event solutions with strong relationships to help solve our clients’ business problems. It’s my job to bring insight, energy and positivity to my leadership role at TTA and I strongly believe in developing and encouraging a strong, open culture so our employees can shine in the process of creating team success.
