Local Businesses Cruise Into Fall at Starmark Fall Networking Event

Local Businesses Cruise Into Fall at Starmark Fall Networking Event

Starmark International, a full-service corporate branding and marketing communications agency, played host to a gathering of Fort Lauderdale business owners and corporate executives for a special networking event to kick off the fall season. A Caribbean themed evening bid farewell to the summer with steel drum music, a menu of jerk chicken and island libations, and even a giveaway of a four-day Norwegian Cruise Line cruise for two to The Bahamas.


Fall is typically one of the busiest times of the year for corporate America as kids head back to school and employees return from summer vacations, stated Starmark CEO, Dan Estes. This year, we decided to host a special celebration welcoming the return to business as usual, as well as the continuing return of our national economic strength.
