This was such a wonderful event!
It was a great event and the staff of Wimbish House and the WIFTA committee did a fantastic job. The energy from the creatives and the executives were spot on. We (WIFTA committee) heard great comments from executives about the quality of the pitches and content; which made it all worth it.
Congrats to Cheryl, Lorielle and team!!!! I was proud to be part of the team.
