Rachael, Leasl, Kerry and SerenaOur very first Information Rendezvous, and we were blessed to have the fashion industries heavy weight, Serena
Beirne, Head of Consulting at
Australian Fashion Partners (
AFP) - at our disposal for an intimate evening of discussion about business strategy.

Serena talks...Serena's presentation was fantastic!!! A real eye opener into the ins and outs of a successful business. Serena, who's
client list runs from
Oroton to Mambo, was thrilled at the opportunity to speak personally with those that attended firstly through her fabulous presentation which had attendees with pen and paper at hand taking notes, and then individually at the end of the night over a relaxing glass of wine.
and they listened....
The night left designers full of ideas for securing business success with many stopping to thank Serena personally for her insight. Business cards were swapped and I can guarantee, many designers would have been laying in bed last night thinking over what she had said and how to implement the ideas into their own business's.
