Comedy, inspiration and business lessons: exclusive party with global business women Samantha Backman & Getrude Matsche

Acclaimed global speakers Samantha Backman and Getrude Matsche regularly headline events in a variety of countries, and having seen each of them, I can tell you without reservation that they're absolutely great. On Dec 3rd, you can see them both together in the splendour of Glasgow's sumptuous Arta (in the Merchant City).

Here are three reasons why this event is special:

• Laugh while you learn - Samantha Backman is an hilarious stand-up comic, having appeared throughout Australasia, and lately, introducing her out-of-the-box blend of worldly-wise female Aussie humour - and serious business experience - to American audiences. She's an international businesswoman, social entrepreneur and TV and radio host.

• Be inspired - along with Samantha, Getrude Matsche has an amazing story of life struggle and entrepreneurial success to tell. Who else do you know that has moved from an IT career to property to Hollywood talent agent? Both women have inspired audiences in many countries with their ability to combine business success with making a difference - exactly the sort of thinking that creates opportunity and success in any economic environment. 

• Enjoy a party atmosphere - We're delighted to be hosting this event in Arta, one of Glasgow's most sumptuous, relaxing and downright cool bars. You'll be greeted with a glass of wine on arrival, mingle with like-minded people, and have a great time!

Getrude Matche spoke at the conclusion of the Akasha event in London last August, following several of the world's top speakers. Frankly, she faced a pretty daunting task, because the previous speakers had really been tremendous. Getrude actually took the audience to an entirely new level, with laughter, inspiration and practical lessons on how to succeed in business.

Here's what Thomas Power, Ecademy Chairman says about Getrude:

"Getrude is changing the world person by person and is one of the finest public speakers and actors I have ever seen. I look forward to her life story becoming an Oscar winning movie. The world needs an army of Getrude's."

This is an evening you'll remember and be talking about for weeks, combining hilarity, business lessons and inspiration. 

Seating is limited - and will fill quickly, so book now... and bring a friend (or two)!
