THE ENGLISH GROUP: PROJECT UPDATES

13/12/05   PROJECT UPDATE:   DELOITTE CBI CONFERENCE

Deloitte is the sponsor of this year's CBI Conference and has asked The English Group to produce a book of portraits of the UK's most renowned business leaders as a commemorative gift to be given to attendees at the conference. The book, titled 'Heads Of Business', illustrates an expanded portfolio of the photographic portraits that were recently on display at the National Portrait Gallery.

The book has a foreword written by Sandy Nairne, the Director of the National Portrait Gallery, and an introduction by John Connolly, the CEO of Deloitte. All of the photographic portraits are by the acclaimed photographer Harry Borden and subjects include business figures as diverse as James Dyson, Sir Richard Branson, Adam Crozier, Sir Alan Sugar, Barbara Cassani and Sir Christopher Frayling.

The book comprises a mix of uncoated and coated Consort Royal papers. It demanded particularly complex print-finishing, including a series of two page tip-ins and a french-folded section. It has a foil-blocked case-bound cover in dark blue velvet, and is further packaged into a bespoke box made of laminated paper over board and Oxford Library Buckram.
