SOS have been proud members of the OBCAI (Office Business Center Association International) since 2001 and attended the our sixth successive Conference in Chicago this year, 4-7 October 2007, following on from Atlanta, Portland, Denver, Washington DC and Las Vegas. The CEO and founder of SOS, Richard Smith, and all the American sales team flew in to Chicago from New York, California and London, to attend the event.

SOS organized a great VIP party at the House of Blues. Richard Smith, the SOS team and especially the 100 guests, had a memorable evening. A special mention to our very own Lauren Goode, based in our Chicago office, for organizing the event. Thank you Lauren!

The party as well as the event has been a great success, and we are looking forward to another year of good business with all our clients.” We received many emails from our guests saying how much they enjoyed the event, such as the example below…
