Keynoting at Talking Point of Business 2017 in Newcastle UK – RogVLOG – 15

TPBiz is a business conference with a difference.

Based in Newcastle, UK, it’s quirky. They hold it in a fun venue called George Street Social.

On the agenda is a mix of speakers, workshops, mastermind sessions and networking opportunities.

This year their theme was content marketing so I was delighted take the stage as their opening keynote speaker.

A great fun day spent with passionate local business people hungry for new ideas, inspiration and eager to share their stories.
