Get Everyone Talking about your Brand
This fast-paced, interactive talk is designed for female founders who want to raise their profile and be heard. Drawing on her experience as a business journalist, Bex Burn-Callander shares insider insight on how to get your brand noticed — from crafting compelling press pitches to speaking confidently on TV and radio and attracting the right influencers.
