Speakers from BlackRock, Hallmark Cards and Loews Corporation presented case studies during the day-long conference.

The programme was praised by delegates.

Mary Beth Giroux, senior benefits administrator at Coach, said: “All the information was very helpful, and it was very thought-provoking.

“There was a lot of information that I took away from it, a very large learning curve. I am so glad I went. I really enjoyed it and I cannot wait for Employee Benefits Connect 2015.”

Next year’s conference will take place in New York on 16 June 2015.
