Grant Perry

If Grant Perry wasn’t so fond of the surf he would probably be a nomad, wandering around on a camel. He was born and raised in the Bay of Plenty of New Zealand and gained a bachelor of international management degree from Waikato University before setting off on his Big O.E. (overseas experience) in 1996. He fulfilled a boyhood dream by driving across the U.S. en-route to live in London. The U.S. lured him back two years later and he spent two years each in North Carolina, California, and Maryland, before following his girlfriend to Ireland, where Grant continues his role managing IL’s ever-expanding range of worldwide conferences and events.
