It was a pleasure to work with Tonje for our online event in October 2021. She was happy to do a briefing with us and to discuss the content of her keynote presentation after that briefing as well to make sure that it fitted well with our conference theme and industry audience. She is a professional and enthusiastic speaker, even online, and our audience was very happy to attend her insightful talk! We would recommend Tonje for both offline and online events. Many thanks again!
