The quality of speakers and attendees is incredibly high, and the Ashton Media team go to incredible efforts to make sure every detail is thought of (thank you!!).  It truly is an immersive learning experience, filled with moments for genuine connection and inspiration. This was my second year and it was wonderful to re-connect with peers from last year, and meet so many incredible new people this year. Having the opportunity to bounce & build ideas in this community is truly so unique to a 'conference' experience. I feel re-energised after spending two days with so many amazing people and I can not wait for next year.  <\/span><\/p><\/div>\n                <\/div>\n                <div class=\"testimonial-item--footer\">\n                    <div class=\"testimonial-item--footer--content\">\n                        <p class=\"ashton-font--bold ashton-font--12\"><span class=\"d-block d-md-inline\">Jessica Redman<\/span> <span class=\"d-none d-md-inline\">-<\/span> Group Learning & Organisational Development Manager, nib Group<\/p>\n                        <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"optus-logo\" src=\"https:\/\/ashtonmedia.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/nib-150px.jpg\"  alt=\"\">\n                    <\/div>\n                <\/div>\n            <\/div>\n        <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n    <div class=\"testimonial-item-row\" data-aos=\"fade_left\" data-aos-duration=\"1500\" data-aos-once=\"true\">\n        <div class=\"testimonial-item testimonial-item--right p-lg-r-40\">\n            <div>\n                <div class=\"testimonial-item--content\">\n                    <div class=\"image-content\">\n                        <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"95\" height=\"95\" src=\"https:\/\/ashtonmedia.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/mark-kessler-95x95.jpg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full wp-post-image\" alt=\"Mark Kessler\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ashtonmedia.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/mark-kessler-95x95.jpg 95w, https:\/\/ashtonmedia.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/mark-kessler-95x95-45x45.jpg 45w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 95px) 100vw, 95px\" \/>\n                    <\/div>\n                    <div class=\"text-content\"><p class=\"ashton-font--light ashton-font--17\"><span class=\"ashton-font--bold ashton-font--14\">LASTING RELATIONSHIPS <\/span><span>The MarTech Symposium continues to go from strength to strength.
