Adriana Brusi
Founder and CEO of Event Negotiators
Born and raised in Hong Kong, Adriana was surrounded by incredible minds in the industry. At 17, she was named Hong Kong’s youngest director, after being awarded a government grant to take kids off the street. She worked with these kids to change their lives through song and dance theatre.
Adriana moved to Australia in 1997, completing degrees in Business, Directing and Choreography. Her natural ability to lead and tackle issues head on landed her in the entertainment industry – where she organised private parties for A-Listers such as Wesley Snipes, Alliyah and Eminem.
In 2004, Adriana threw in her party shoes and started working her way up the corporate ladder, as the National Business Development Manager for Ramada and would later be headhunted as a key asset to wholesale chocolate supplier, Cocoa Alliance distributing couverture chocolate to Australia’s leading chefs.
2009 was a standout year for Adriana. She hosted the World Leading Patissiere Ramon Morato, and created a masterpiece event – with the Head Chocolatier of Nobu Ian Burch, Damien Purchase and George Columbaris – at the Press Club.
Adriana was scouted by one of the largest catering companies in the world, Delaware North, where she took on the role as the National Events, Sales and Marketing Manager. Overseeing large establishments, from Zoos Victoria to Hisense Arena, Adriana was certainly making a name for herself.
But there’s one thing that stops us all in our tracks, including Adriana… love.
And it would be through planning her own wedding that Adriana’s first business was born – the Bridal Suite (www.bridalsuite.com.au). And not long after, in the same year, Adriana launched her second business, Event Negotiators (www.eventnegotiators.com.au).
Adriana was an unstoppable force… and her skills were did not go unnoticed.
Jamie McIntyre, CEO of 21st Century Education, encouraged Adriana to take on the Director of Events, Marketing and Speaker Management role. Adriana’s natural affinity with running events made her the one to watch on the speaker circuit. Her knowledge around CRM management, campaigns, and results grew rapidly.
In 2010, Adriana, through 21st Century Education, was contracted to one of Australia’s largest financial education summits. She successfully filled Hisense arena with over 10,000 attendees, secured sponsorship deals, and was responsible for bringing big names to the event – including Sir Richard Branson, Tim Ferriss, Jeff and Kane, Andrew Griffiths and 30 additional speakers.
Adriana’s company, the Event Negotiators, became highly sought after.
Adriana continued to work with many international speakers, building strong relationships with one of the largest promoters in the world… hosting events alongside Anthony Robbins, Robert Kiyosaki and many more incredible speakers in Malaysia, Singapore and Europe.
But Adriana’s focus was on her family. In 2013, after several IVF attempts, Adriana and her husband Matt were blessed with a beautiful little girl – Juliana. In 2014, Allegra, her sister, followed.
2015 was Adriana’s “I’m back” year.
Managing the seesaw of work/family life, Adriana is an inspiration to women in Australia, and the world. If you’re looking for an event management company who’ve earned their stripes, it’s no other than Adriana Brusi’s Event Negotiators.

而21st Century Education的首席执行员Jamie McIntyre也鼓励她委任活动项目、市场营销和演讲管理总监。Adriana在活动项目中天然的契合让她成为主讲焦点,而频密接触客户关系管理(CRM),市场活动和成果令她的知识经验迅速累积。
