The Institute of Refrigeration is delighted to announce that ticket sales for this year’s IOR Annual Dinner have already surpassed last year’s numbers, demonstrating the industry’s support for celebrating the IOR’s 125th anniversary and to welcoming our new President Lisa-Jayne Cook FInstR.
Taking place on 27 February 2025 at the London Hilton Bankside, the IOR Annual Dinner is the Institute’s flagship fundraising event. It offers an evening of networking, reconnecting with industry colleagues and friends, and an after-dinner speaker – name to be released soon.
IOR President Lisa-Jayne Cook shared her enthusiasm about the increase in bookings, stating:
"It is really exciting to see the RACHP industry getting behind the IOR and supporting the Institute in this way. The IOR Annual Dinner is one of our social highlights, but it’s also a fantastic opportunity for anyone in RACHP to support the IOR’s core mission to encourage education and innovation. I am looking forward to giving out our usual awards as well as meeting the industry’s top students who have been invited along as our guests again this year."The event not only brings the refrigeration, air conditioning, and heat pump community together but also helps drive the IOR’s work in fostering innovation and knowledge-sharing across the industry.
