Three entrepreneurs are set to share valuable insights on creating authentic and captivating brands, at a special function at Maroochydore.

Byron Bay-based Odette Barry (Odette and Co) and Noosa’s Andrew MacColl (Saturate Studio) and Louise Clark (ebb & flow studio) are poised to deliver their personal and professional tips on brand building and authenticity, while staying true to your creative path when business wants you to do otherwise.

Local businesses, from start-ups to seasoned operators, are encouraged to attend the Refinery TALKS panel discussion at The MET on Thursday, June 10.

SunCentral City Activation Project Manager Bronwyn Adams said the speakers were warm, approachable and creative entrepreneurs who have been able to work on local, national and international clients while being based in regional coastal communities.

Andrew MacColl has directed campaigns for Apple, IBM, Toms and NBC Universal.

“I am certain that our panel of speakers will really appeal to our guests,” she said.

“They all have interesting stories to share about their diverse career experiences while also growing their business in the same community where they live, work and play.

“Odette Barry is a storyteller who loves nothing more than helping businesses share their stories through traditional media, while Andrew MacColl is a creative director, visual artist and founder of award-winning creative studio, Saturate.

“He has directed campaigns for Apple, IBM, Toms and NBC Universal and currently has three portraits in the National Portrait Gallery.”
