MB celebrated its first-ever PR/Marketing/Advertising cocktail party hosted by PR manager Joann Natalia Aquino and writer Michael Bradbury at the newly opened Red Fin at Hotel Max. Publicists, marketers, and ad folks gathered, mingled, and enjoyed a fabulous night of shoptalk over savory sushi and stiff cocktails. Some even got a private tour of the modernized uber-artsy Hotel Max.
