Our speaker for this event will be creative director Fiona Sweet.

Fiona is the founder of well-known brand agency, Sweet Creative. Staying true to her original vision of a small studio with big ideas, Fiona has created a niche for Sweet Creative that has not only set her apart, but made the creative world sit up and take notice. With highly creative design solutions and smart strategic branding, Sweet has attracted a client base eager to take risks

Fiona’s sharp understanding of branding comes from over 30 years experience as a graphic designer, 17 of those running her own company. Fiona is a major supporter of the arts and has created many of Melbourne’s most loved festivals with their recognisable identities, including the Big West festival, Malthouse Theatre, and Orchestra Victoria. In addition she has two teenage children with artist husband Paul Newcombe, and serves on the board of the Chamber Made Opera.

At this CWC event, hear about how Fiona built Sweet Creative, how they attract their enviable client base, the ups and downs that come with running a graphic design & PR studio for almost two decades, and more. After the talk, join us for afternoon tea.

Seating is strictly limited so please book tickets early to avoid missing out.
