Strategic content, programme development and thought leadership for high-level international events and forums.
I work with leading organisations to design forums and thought leadership that engage senior decision-makers across finance, policy, business and academia. From shaping overall strategy through to programme design and delivery, I focus on creating work that is relevant, well-informed and has real impact.
I founded AW Research & Events following nearly 15 years’ experience, including roles at the University of Oxford and Chatham House. I have since worked with organisations including Moody’s, the Financial Times and Reuters.
"From day one, Amy made a significant impact.

Her ability to quickly grasp complex subject areas was impressive, and she played a key role in shaping engaging and impactful event agendas."
