Hi.
Is any one else using this forum involved in the marketing/graphic design and/or the food sectors?.
I am interested in forming some informal business and professional networking relationships to share ideas, experiences, contacts, resources etc.
I'm an experienced marketing strategist/creative design director currently working in Leeds, UK and looking at potential move to Italy, likely Rome base, but working nationally.
I have extensive b2b and consumer experience, mix of blue chip and SME brands, current focus on the food sector, particular interest is in working with authentic 'artisan' and regional producers and brands.

Hi Andrew

I have links with some food companies. Is it only food your interested in?

Hi Andrew

My partner and I are moving to Parma, Italy in 8 weeks. She is going to be studying a Masters in Food Culture and Communication at the University of Gastronomic Sciences - potentially a good informal contact for you? We're also going to be in Leeds in early November because I have family there (you dont happen to know the Cundles or the Gaunts do you? That would be just too small a world).

Perhaps it could be mutually beneficial for you and my partner to be in touch.

Cheers
Anthony

Hi Anthony, really good to hear from you and very interested in continuing the conversation and meeting up. Will send you a private message with my contact details.

And this is spooky, don't know any of the Guant family members directly but rent office space in an old mill in Leeds which used to be the Gaunt family business, the name is still used by the company which manages the property.
