Testimonial
I recently attended The Melbourne Business Network ‘4 Quarters of Networking’ event and was incredibly impressed.
Having run networking events myself, I understand the challenge of engaging the attendees for the entire evening.
Brenda Thomson did an excellent job with her networking game which left everyone at our table certain they could create quite a few alliances.
We did so well in fact, that we won the night!
Thank you for your refreshing approach to networking.
Warm regards,
Ludwina Dautovic

EMAIL COMMENTS
Tracey
A quick note to thank you for all your hard work that contributed to the great success of the lunch yesterday. I have received very positive feedback from our CEO, Councillors and Director and we could not have done it with you and the Melbourne Business Networks support.
When all the accounts are finalised, I would like to know our total donation for Dragons Abreast, so that we can let our Councillors know.
Many thanks and hope you now have a couple of quiet days to recover (from this and fashion week!).
Regards
Jane
