🔒 Premium: You’re invited to BN offices for our first physical/online hybrid webinar

A couple of exciting developments for you this morning.

Next Thursday (20th Jan) at 6pm, we’ll be holding our first event at our new Bryanston HQ. The traditional monthly portfolio webinar update is becoming a hybrid affair. Apart from the usual online option (click here to register) we’ll also host 30 Premium members in our conference room.

For a variety of reasons, the portfolio update webinars are being switched to 6pm on the second last Thursday of every month.

We’re expecting there to be strong demand for the seats so if you’d like to come along to this or future webinar updates, please email my colleague Danita de Canha at [email protected].

Today’s other news relates to the third BizNews Conference which will be held in the Drakensberg on March 1-4 (only six weeks away). After a successful experiment at BNC#2 in September, we’re adding an exhibition area for participants to show off their products to other attendees.

There is a modest fee to cover the hotel’s direct expenses. But given that our tribe loves doing business with like-minded people, we’re expecting this to be very popular. So once again, please act quickly. Our commercial director Clive Eksteen is handling this project. You can reach him via [email protected].

If you’re still wondering whether to attend the conference, here’s the link with all the details.
