  • The sponsors’ presentations were short, sharp and even fun (gasp!)
  • The keynote presentation was on time, engaging and had take-home value for 1-person, 10-person and 1000-person businesses
  • The raffle and door prizes were worth winning!

The event was a Business Chicks breakfast with the one and only Richard Branson.  

Emma Isaacs and the Business Chicks team you have at least one more raving fan after today!  Awesome work.
