How many great business ideas have you heard?

Naomi Simson is passionate about leading well and having a rich life outside of work with family and friends.
Naomi is an award-winning Australian entrepreneur and business leader who started her own business with just $25,000 of her own money and has now delivered 6,500,000 experiences to customers.
Naomi founded Red Balloon in 2001 with the unique idea – to build a marketplace for experiences. This has since expanded to several small businesses under her umbrella company, Big Red Group.
Naomi is a blogger, a best-selling author, a highly sought-after speaker and a philanthropist. She’s Governor of the Cerebral Palsy Alliance, Director of the University of Melbourne Faculty of Business and Economics and was a popular investor on Australia’s Shark Tank.
