Testimonials

The event went really well last week. Regarding Sarah Cruddas' involvement I simply cannot speak highly enough of her contribution. She made an excellent, speaker, moderator, chair and all round conference superstar. It was a genuine pleasure to work with her and would happily do so again in the future.
Andrew Kerry - Terrapin.
It was a pleasure working with Sarah Cruddas to introduce and moderate a discussion with keynote Buzz Aldrin at the inaugural ‘me Convention’, a new collaboration between SXSW and Mercedes-Benz. Sarah was very responsive and decisive which was great given our short timeline. She was organised and communicative throughout the process, which made all the preparations go quite smoothly. On site, she was able to direct the conversation appropriately and engage the audience fluidly, and so we look forward to working with her on future events!
Morgan Catalina - Producer, me Convention.
Sarah Cruddas has an excellent understanding of the UK space industry, she has great interpersonal skills in a way that easily relates to the public and to space professionals, and works hard to promote the success of UK science in a way that is easily acceptable across the media.
Prof. Richard Holdaway CBE, Former Director of RAL Space.
Sarah Cruddas was a real inspiration for the students she spoke to – bringing to vivid life a subject that for many is distant and sometimes hard to relate to.
Simon Pride, Harper Adams.
Sarah’s wit, charm and dedication towards the grassroots community of space entrepreneurs are exactly the qualities we seek to attract to Disrupt Space. She is already seen as leader in our community. Sarah helped our team in several ways from serving as a moderator for the 2016 Disrupt Space Summit highlight panel to advising the founding team on various topics. Her dedication towards her work is exemplary and we look forward to an ongoing relationship.
Philippe Cyr, Co-Founder and Managing Director, Disrupt Space.
