Meet Marilena Narbona – The Regional Director for the Business Networking in Bristol
Marilena Narbona is a people connector and networking strategist who works with The Athena Network Bristol Networking and International Groups.
Her instinct to reach out and help people to make the right connections along with her interpersonal skills are at the heart of everything she does which she carries out with her groups of business networking in Bristol and internationally. She is a spontaneous and emotional communicator, multilingual and cosmopolitan, naturally at ease in multicultural environments.
Marilena’s experience spans from corporate ”before children” life – when she worked in London for a global Company -, to creating a ground breaking method and schools of English as-a-second-and-third-language-for-toddlers, to sitting on the Board of Governors of International schools, always liaising with consulates and embassies, private companies and corporations.
This varied and strongly corporate-influenced international background provided a sound springboard for more recent entrepreneurial ventures, the creation of a high-end personal connections introduction agency and mentoring her sons in their first entrepreneurial venture, Bo Bom Gelato which – having gained very early on recognition by both international press and clientele – is now established in the South West of the UK. More information about Bo Bom Gelato can be found via this link.
What is however Marilena’s passion is supporting and connecting women in business, something Marilena worked tirelessly at when she joined The Athena Network in 2008 and created the largest and fastest growing Athena area with 12 strong groups and a huge number of committed, inspirational, vibrant ladies who shared her passion and vision and who created with her a phenomenal team flying the flag of The Athena Network in the capital of England.
She is now The Athena Network International Director and is leading the Business Networking in Bristol as Regional Director.
As ever, she is holding the vision of reaching out and helping women business owners, executives, entrepreneurs, to make connections that will drive their business and personal growth.
