The Ashfield Meetings & Events’ leadership position of business development director will now be filled by Debbie Liberio.
“Debbie is an outstanding sales professional and I am delighted to welcome her to the Ashfield Meetings & Events team,” said Gavin Houston, CEO of Americas. “With her solid background in business development as well as life sciences, I look forward to Debbie’s contributions in identifying and promoting strategic solutions for new and existing clients. Her experience will certainly help ensure our organization continues to be a leader in the meeting planning industry.”
Liberio’s 20 years of experience in the sales and strategic business field had an unusual start. After receiving her undergraduate degree in biology, Liberio was a medical technologist at St. Christopher’s Hospital for Children. From there she transferred into sales roles, and she has had experience with executive development and executive meeting planning at a variety of organizations.
“I am thrilled to be part of an organization with such an extensive area of expertise as Ashfield,” Liberio said. “Their approach to meetings and events is innovative and unique in the sector.”
