To celebrate Indigenous Business Month, we’re bringing you a free, How I Started This, event with Indigenous business owners to your lunchtime screens this October.
Not your run-of-the-mill business women, the panel welcomes First Nations talent agency founder Bianca Hunt, Melbourne-based designer Tahnee Edwards, and Business consultant Kerry Kennell, moderated by AFL host Megan Waters.
Lunch and learn how these three proud Indigenous women saw a gap in their respective industries and decided to do something about it.
