Global Sales Strategies for Ambitious Kiwi Entrepreneurs
13 & 14 May, 2010, PricewaterhouseCoopers Tower, 188 Quay Street, Auckland
A high quality seminar and workshop for CEOs and their top sales executives from young, fast-growing companies featuring case studies and lectures, interactive discussions, student presentations, “hands-on” exercises, and the opportunity to practice “elevator sales pitches” to potential customers.
Led by KENNETH P. MORSE:
Chairman, Entrepreneurship Ventures, Inc., Boston, MA, USA
Founding Managing Director, MIT Entrepreneurship Center, Cambridge, MA, USA
Chair in Entrepreneurship, Innovation and Competitiveness, Delft University of Technology, Delft, The Netherlands
“Ken has a wealth of experience and ‘war stories’ to die for! The situational tips he provided were second to none. Ken has probably saved me some years of hard-earned experience… The ‘elevator pitch’ role playing was excellent and quickly identified shortcomings and traps that I will no longer fall into.”
Ian Prisk, Black Coffee Software, Wellington, New Zealand
