Christopher Reckord, CEO, tTech and DeB 2019 Group Leader

“I’ve been a group leader from day one, since the event came to Kingston. I’m most looking forward to the guessing game when everyone boards the bus and tries to take a guess at where we’re headed! My favourite moment of the night is when the mood and energy switch and its party time!”
