Day 1 was tailored to business owners that had experienced expansion.The purpose of the day was to provide advice and guidance on how to successfully expand a business and to ensure that any new offices being opened were being done so in the most effective and efficient way. With a firm strategy in place, business owners must ensure that they would have the best chance possible of succeeding.The guest speakers covered an array of topics including; the importance of spending time in new offices and having a hands-on approach in all expansions, learning how to rebound after setbacks as well as how to drive a business forward.

Day 2 was aimed at the business as a whole.One of the focal points was knowing when to go back to basics.The speaker stressed that sometimes people, not just in business, try and overcomplicate things when instead the best results tend to come from keeping it simple. Other subjects that were covered included setting targets and goals for development, driving sales and how to overcome factors that stop momentum.

The third day was more of a socialising event, with dinner and drinks at the Laurent-Perrier Champagne bar.
