Q&A Sessions​

A new event:

Roxhill Q&As is your opportunity to grill the experts! Ask journalists about any work-related issues, from a specific scenario you are dealing with to a more broad inquiry that will help you formulate your strategy.

We will ask you to submit questions in advance, but we’ll also have time during the 45-minute session for follow-ups.

Prices from: £40.00

If you’re interested in booking to attend all three Q&A sessions, please contact olivia.dear@roxhillmedia.com for a discounted price.
