ENTREPRENEUR | KEYNOTE SPEAKER | AUTHOR www.kellylundberg.co

Multi-award winner Kelly Lundberg believes in nurturing business skills and entrepreneurial spirit from an early age. After ten years of combining skill and experience to build her businesses, Kelly has been hands-on with learning the ropes.

"Entrepreneurial spirit is something that cannot be ignored. I had a business idea that I knew was unique and had real business potential. I worked round the clock to make my dream a reality, and now I want to encourage others to do the same by sharing my experiences. I see this as a way to give something back to the community, and to help develop business ideas in the Middle East."

Nominated as a finalist in the People's Choice category, and Most Admirable Business Woman category at the 2011 SME Advisor Awards, Lundberg has established herself as one of the region's key innovators and entrepreneurs. In 2005, she launched Divine, a bespoke styling company, which taps into the regional insight that women like to have help with choosing clothes, shoes and accessories. Starting off with at-home wardrobe consultations and shopping sessions, Kelly's business has grown into an international style forum and boutique for both men and women. Kelly now has a best-selling book and a successful iTunes application under her Hermès belt, as well as a thriving business which she now manages on a day-to-day basis along with her fashion-forward team.
Working as an inspirational speaker and mentor,

Kelly draws on her own experiences and those of other successful business-owners to share insights with budding entrepreneurs. Through her wealth of experience from working in the region for 10 years, Kelly is a keynote speaker on a variety of topics, particularly sought-after by business students, corporations and retailers alike.

"Through my Master Classes and training seminar workshops, I can spend quality time with people and deliver in-depth training on a group or one-on-one basis. I find this aspect of my work most rewarding, as together we can reach new levels of innovation and idea generation," explains Kelly.
