1.#WeAreInItTogether

Remember the camaraderie of attending events? The catchups over coffee and the chance introductions to people who might help shape your future? Well, we may not be able to hand you a drink, but we can guarantee you’ll instantly feel that sense of togetherness by joining us virtually for this incredible, inaugural IMAGE Business Summit. Brought to you by the same team behind the annual IMAGE Businesswoman of the Year Awards, you’ll hear how your peers, your thought leaders and key men and women of influence have been surviving, and thriving throughout their careers as well as over the past few months. And who knows, you might pick up some fresh new ideas.

5. Lightbulb Moments

The joy of the IMAGE Business Summit comes from those brilliant soundbites that cause lightning to strike… when someone shares something that ignites an idea within and catapults you forward. We challenge you to listen to Dr Antia Sands, Linda Kiely, Gina Millar and Anne O’Leary and not have several of these priceless lightbulb moments.
