As entrepreneurs or small business owners, you need to believe in yourself and your vision, first and foremost; but you can also benefit enormously from collaboration.
That’s the philosophy behind a new intensive two-day business retreat, Ignite with Impact. Building on the success of the inaugural event in February 2024, Ignite with Impact is returning to empower more entrepreneurs. The event has been tailored to the evolving needs of business owners to ensure it delivers value and impact.
There’s a thriving entrepreneurial spirit in Singapore, with a diverse community of individuals striving to turn their passions into successful businesses. The journey, however, can be fraught with challenges and isolation.
It was these factors that inspired the creation of Ignite with Impact. Elizabeth Taylor, Anna Norriss and Anna Seefeldt are now leading this initiative forward. The three passionate entrepreneurs came together to support and challenge each other on their individual business journeys through shared experiences, honest conversations and mutual encouragement. Now, they’re helping to build and empower a wider, thriving community of entrepreneurs.
A retreat built on collaboration
Ignite with Impact is a transformative two-day business retreat that allows entrepreneurs to learn, grow and thrive together.
The three women describe it as more than just a series of workshops and presentations. Rather, it’s an immersive, community centric experience where people can share their challenges, exchange ideas and learn from each other’s successes.
The retreat offers a unique blend of the following:
- Expert-led sessions: Gain insights from marketing experts, each with over 20 years’ experience in helping business owners get clarity on how best to grow their business.
- Interactive workshops: Participate in hands-on activities designed to spark creativity and drive action.
- Networking opportunities: Connect with like-minded entrepreneurs from diverse backgrounds and industries.
- Personalised support: Benefit from tailored guidance to tackle your specific marketing challenges.
The result? You’ll not only walk away with practical tools and techniques to implement in your business immediately, but the relationships and knowledge gained at the retreat will continue to benefit you long after the event.
