MULTI-award winning communications and events agency drp, which is headquartered at Hartlebury, has another trophy for the sideboard.

It picked up the IT & Telecoms Event of the Year Award at the annual C&IT (Conference and Incentive Travel) Awards held at the Hilton London on Park Lane and attended by more than 500 top events industry professionals.

The agency was also shortlisted for automotive event of the year, best event solution to a business challenge and UK agency of the year.

drp worked closely with telecoms giant EE to produce, create, manage, and deliver its most innovative annual company conference. EE required a series of eight live events accessible to the entire business, bringing EE colleagues together to celebrate their achievements and share opportunities for the future. The event needed to effectively communicate the company's new business strategy and mark a key milestone in EE’s history.

drp’s chief executive Dale Parmenter said: "We acquired EE as a client at the start of this year, and we are overwhelmed and overjoyed to have been recognised for our work with the renowned brand. I am extremely proud of the drp team, as they drove this project with creativity, innovation and enthusiasm, making anything possible for EE.”
