Today at Apple: How Creativity Builds Brands with Jane Chuck
It’s not everyday that you get to sit and hear how successful entrepreneurs reach their goals. This time, The Apple Store at The Exchange TRX is hosting an hour-long series with Jane Chuck, where attendees will get her best tips and tricks to staying ahead of the game—and how Apple products help her to achieve her goals as she run her various lifestyle and beauty brands. So if you’ve always had a business-crush on the maven, this is your chance to take a page from her book.
Date: 13 March 2025
Address: The Apple Store, The Exchange TRX
M Gallery Presents Addendum
Up for a thought-provoking session? Then make your way to PJ to visit a group exhibition featuring both award-winning artists and new name in the scene. Here, four artists join hands to display contemporary art and architectural creations to spark meaningful conversations for visitors. One artist, Musuh Setan (also known as Aiesyah Azriff) piqued our interest thanks to the bold statements she’s making through her art—which also includes a zine that you can order a copy of.
Entrance is free.
