"I am writing to wholeheartedly recommend the Chapel Hill Convention Visitors Bureau for their exceptional support during our recent business conference. Their team went above and beyond in helping us find the best local suppliers, ensuring our event ran smoothly and successfully.
Additionally, the thoughtful gifts they provided for our speakers, including local hats and T-shirts, were a wonderful touch that showcased the charm of Chapel Hill. These personal touches not only delighted our speakers but also enhanced the overall experience of our conference.
I highly endorse the Chapel Hill Convention Visitors Bureau for any event planning needs. Their dedication and local knowledge make them an invaluable resource".
~Justine Massip - Head of Global Operations | International Semiconductors Executive Summits
