KMi’s traditional Christmas party, always includes friends and family who are invited to our Podium to join the festive cheer. This year had a bit of a twist, we brought a tropical flavour to Milton Keynes all guests were dressed in Hawaiian theme.
We had our KMi rules secret Santa, where choosing your present late in proceeding is a bonus as the chance for a ‘steal’ is significantly reduced. The event saw the first outing for the Knowledge Media Instruments (KMi)! KMi, led by Enrico Daga and Manu Bastianelli really got the party started when whole audience joined singing ‘let it be’.
A fantastic event, thanks to the organisers – high expectation for KMi Festive celebrations 2016!
