(PRWEB) September 11, 2006 -- The 2006 International Directory Assistance Conference and Awards took place this week at the Radisson SAS hotel Manchester Airport UK. The highly successful event, sponsored by Market Location, included a two day conference featuring speakers and delegates from around the globe. The delegates were inspired by the highly acclaimed motivational speaker Adrian Webster.
Following the two day networking event the second evening was dedicated to celebrating the positive aspects of the global directory assistance awards. The black tie gala dinner hosted by one of the UK's funniest men Terry Alderton was a roaring success. Guests were treated to a champagne reception and exquisite four course dinner. The organisers explained the ethos of the event; "the two day conference gives the delegates an opportunity to network and meet their colleagues and competitors from around the globe, the awards gala dinner is an opportunity to celebrate the achievements made by the organisations and people involved in the directory services industry. The evening is aimed at giving a relaxing pleasant end to the successful conference and I believe this was achieved," explained Megan Smith of 118tracker.com.
