19.01.2022 Hi Folks. I'm afraid we have had to cancel tomorrow's 23/8 event, due to timing issues. Thanks to those who showed interest in attending, and those who booked, and to our speakers Fiona Lucas from iRespectOnline, Brian Duckworth - Marketing Strategist & Business Coach and @Achalan Holmes who stepped up to dazzle. ... And thanks to Liz Grant from NAB Business Centre The Village NAB Geelong for providing venue and promo and enthusiasm for this event, and to our caterer Jo Bangles from Splatter Platters, for swinging into action, who will get the next gig. And HUGE THANKS to Fiona Lucas, from iRespect Online, who picked up and ran with this event in this past 2 weeks, despite having a lot on herself, to see if it could be saved, while Stephanie Beitzel has been buried with a huge work load that wasn't in the frame when this event was pitched back in June. However, elements of this event are already sparking ideas with our speakers for a truly inspired programme at a later date, with plenty of time and attention to give it a proper chance of success. So watch this space. Those who booked on Eventbrite will receive refunds, and a FREE Day Pass to our Technology for Geelong Regional Innovation Summit on 5/9. Thanks again everyone! You can't win 'em all. But you can't win anything, unless you give it a go. And THAT is business.
