It all depends with the event. Some are during the day, others are in the evening.
Accountants, aspiring accountants, business leaders, blue chip corporates delegates etc.
We want to inspire, motivate and offer insights to our members. Guest speakers can share their experience and give some takeaways for our members to implement in their lives.
