Collaborating with Your Banking Partner
Ian Gash
Head of Commercial and Agribusiness
Westpac Banking Corporation
What does your banker need to know about your business to be able to support your growth?
Are those things that are important at start up time the same things that are focused on for a more mature organisation?
What signs should you be looking for that indicate it might be a good time for a chat?
What signs will your banker be looking for?
What did the GFC change in your banking relationship?
If, like me, you find business banking a bit of a mystery then join us for breakfast on Thursday 25 February to part the curtains and peek inside. Make sure you bring your CFO!
As well as the Keynote session another three of our members will be grabbing their Five Minutes of Fame so come and find out why they are, just maybe, the right collaboration partners for you.
Microsoft continues to partner with CollabIT by providing a venue and support but if you go to Sydney Avenue you will be in the wrong place. Microsoft’s impressive new work space is still in Barton but in National Circuit so make sure you go there.
There are three reasons why you should attend a CollabIT breakfast:
- You will meet new contacts who may just help you build that successful bid.
- Be inspired by your peers: the Five Minutes of Fame provides local businesses with the opportunity to showcase who they are and what they do all within a five minute time limit. Three new companies are featured at each breakfast.
- Our keynote sessions provide valuable insights that may just help you take your business to the next level.
