WA- Let’s Talk About Corporate Partnerships

During this breakfast session, you will hear from Hailey Cavill-Jaspers, one of Australia’s most experienced corporate-cause partnership matchmakers. Hailey will lead a panel of six panellists from companies and non-profits at the front-line of corporate-cause partnerships in WA. It will be robust, fast-paced and immensely insightful. This not a session to be missed!
