Executive Lifestyle Network #2

En af udfordringerne i livsstilsbranchen er at kortene ofte holdes tæt til kroppen, og at der derfor ikke sker ligeså meget erfaringsudveksling og netværksskabelse, som der er mulighed og behov for.  Executive Lifestyle Network er et erhvervsnetværk, der henvender sig til virksomhedsejere, direktører og beslutningstagere på strategisk niveau i livsstilsbranchen (mode, møbel, interiør, design, accessoires og sko).
