Cassius Anderson, Global Licensing Group’s business development manager, is celebrating after winning a prestigious AEO People’s Award last week.
Cassius (pictured above centre) picked up Sales Manager of the Year during the ceremony, held by the Association of Events Organisers at London’s Business Design Centre on Friday 26 January.
The awards – which were hosted by comedian, writer and content creator, Finlay Christie – is dedicated to recognising the talent the events industry has on the ground, from junior to middle management event professions in marketing, ops, sales and beyond.
“First of all, a massive thank you to the AEO team for recognising my accomplishments and spotlighting me for this award,” Cassius told LicensingSource.net. “Also thank you to Charlie Le Rougetel for making this happen by entering me in the AEO People’s Awards; it’s a great feeling to be recognised from all the hard work put in. I’m looking forward to the year ahead and aiming for more success within the industry.”
Anna Clarke, svp licensing at Informa Markets, added: “Cass is a human dynamo and an amazing sales person. He works very hard, he delivers for his clients and he always goes above and beyond for his colleagues, his customers and everyone who comes into his world. He’s once of the most genuine sales person you can work with and he happily balances the needs of the client and the needs of the business. BLE demonstrated record new business levels in 2023 and Cass was a huge part of that result.”
