Growing your Business

I spent this afternoon making this map of car parking options for next week's OSIA meeting, but couldn't get it to display on the OSIA website. Grrr.  So instead - I'm adding the information here, along with the map I did. I've also attached the inkscape SVG.

When: 7pm Thursday 17 April
Where: Innovation@257, Level One, Emirates House, 257 Collins Street, Melbourne
What: Melbourne OSV/OSIA Meeting

Presentation Topic
Growing your Business by Kevin Littlejohn of Obsidian Consulting 

Starting out on your own as a consultant, and building that into a small business, is a tough task - but what happens once you start hiring employees and growing larger? This talk examines one company's growth to 12 employees over the last 8 years. This isn't the gospel on how to run a business, but many of the issues we've faced will be common across IT companies generally.
