The Business MasterClass program for 2010 has commenced. The first event was held at Industry & Investment NSW’s Parramatta office and was widely acclaimed as one of the best events ever run by the Department. Feedback from all attendees rated it as excellent.

Alan Robson, Finance Manager of Supply One Pty Ltd said, “WOW. This is the best seminar with the best speaker I have experienced for some years. It generated a lot of thinking, ideas and contemplation with regards to our future plans.”

Graham Brown, Managing Director of NuFlora International said, “Congratulations on the first MasterClass – it was great!”

The speaker at the event was Craig Rispin, a futurist, who discussed where business communications is heading in the 21st century.

Upcoming speakers next month and for the rest of the year are just as educational and entertaining.
