The (other) Three Rs: Risk, Reward and ROI

Tue, August 10, 2021. 12:00pm – 13:30pm (AEST)

Growing grapes and making wine are risky endeavours and overall, we do those well. Putting a price on that risk and establishing sustainable returns is too often done poorly. This session brings together a group of insightful speakers who bring an objective outsider’s perspective on how to price risk, margins and benchmarking, and an update on today’s investor/shareholder landscape – even if that means the next generation of the family.

Business success through customer focus

Building a successful customer-centric business requires a company to think about how they interact with the customer and actions to constantly improve the experiences of its customers.
