It’s easy to get your marketing wrong. And it’s hard to get it right. Very hard. If it was easy, we’d all be marketing experts, right?

That’s why our 80×20 events were created. To help you build valuable connections and insight into ways you can push your business forward.

Come and join us for 40 minutes of networking, a 20-minute learning session from one of the team, followed by another 40 minutes of networking. 

80 minutes of networking and 20 minutes of learning. 80×20 networking – simple!
