IBNInc and the Designer Chicks
ABOUT IBNInc
Independent Business Network Incorporated (IBNInc) commenced in October 2008 with the support of The Hills Shire council after 3 women; Julie Warner, Kay Murphy and Mary Louise Marshall met at a Networking event, they realised they all worked in the Hills and decided to have a regular monthly catch up to provide support to each other with their businesses.
These monthly catch up sessions were so valuable in providing support, motivation and the accountability to assist with the growth of their businesses.
Having not found quite the right fit with existing network groups they decided to launch IBNInc to assist others in micro businesses. Kay and Mary Louise have gone in other directions and Julie has continued running the group.
In 2022 we incorporated The Designer Chicks network group into the IBNInc family. This network group is for all creative business owners and they meet on the last Wednesday of the month.
