Are you joining our SPEAKERS TEAM in 2023?

MSPA EA conference team is happy to share that the 2023 Conference planning has begun!

Our return to face to face conferences in Varna for 2022 was a resounding success and the  programme was our highest rated event ever, so a hard act to follow!

Our plan is to prepare the best ever event we can; ensuring great content, safe and inspirational networking and above all a return to our motto to Connect, Learn and Share in Person!

We have heard loud and clear from many of you that you will join us! But before we see you all, we need to hear from volunteers to share their experiences and plans, whatever they are. These case studies can be about clients, products, processes or people as your business adapts for the future.

Our theme for 2023 is grounded in the realities of the business challenges that we face, and so do our clients…

THE HUMAN ASSET - Driving Operational Excellence

"Recognising the Value of People, Process and Technology"

We are looking for anyone to share how you, or your clients, recognise the value of the people that deliver every day. How your business processes are improved both in the delivery of effective mystery shopping programmes and how clients gain from their programmes to be more effective.

In essence…

When work gets more challenging, connecting with people is everything. It helps everyone to point in the same direction, can give more VALUE to customers, more SECURITY to employees and be more ACCESSIBLE to partners. Our key themes for our conference are:-

Some clues on content are as follows but welcome any thoughts from those who have more to add:

• How to deliver more with less
• How to build capacity
• Re-engineer your processes AND Technology
• Drive effectiveness, efficiency, and the bottom line

We are interested in keynote speakers on these broad subjects and Case Study presentations that were highly successful last year in their shorter 20/30 minute format.
