FASTSIGNS CEO delivers two international keynotes

Catherine Monson, CEO of FASTSIGNS International, Inc. spoke at European Master and Multi-Unit Franchising Conference and will speak at Franchise Alliance Awards Gala today.

Catherine Monson, who is also the first Vice Chair of the International Franchise Association, delivered the opening keynote session at the European Master and Multi-Unit Franchising Conference in Vienna on January 28th-29th on the “State of Franchising: US & Global Perspectives”.

Monson was joined by over 50 speakers who were a mix of franchisors, master franchisees and multi-unit and multi-brand franchisees. She informed attendees how they can broaden their brands’ footprints across the globe.

Today she will also deliver an enlightening and motivating keynote address at the Franchise Awards Gala Dinner in Budapest at the New York Palace. Last year, Reed Nyfeler, the CEO and Co-Founder of Signal 88 spoke at the event.

It’s the most important event of the Hungarian Franchise Association. It’s expected that 250 people will attend, including representatives of major franchise brands in Eastern Europe. Part of the evening will be dedicated to honouring high-performing franchises and awarding them with various prizes. This will include Franchise Network of the Year, Most Dynamically Developing Franchise Network of the Year, Successfully Expanding Domestic Network Abroad, Marketing Award, Young Successful Franchisee and even more.
