Infocus 2017 Annual Award winners!

by Infocus

Infocus recently held its annual adviser conference and awards dinner in the beautiful Barossa Valley. Guest speakers at the conference included former Prime Minister John Howard and SAS soldier turned businessman Ben Roberts-Smith. Advisers also heard from a variety of industry thought leaders and members of the Infocus network, gaining valuable knowledge and insights for the year ahead.

iCON17 wrapped up with the Annual Awards Dinner and Charity Gala, raising money for Infocus' chosen charity, the Starlight Foundation. It was also a chance to recognise those going above and beyond in their financial advice business. We congratulate the following winners:
