Sephora needed a philanthropic initiative that made strategic sense. With nearly instant results, Alice identified a charity that operates on children’s facial deformities. How innovative to link this to our mission — the business of beauty. Alice created our first “cause marketing” campaign helping thousands of children around the world.
- Director, Cultural and Philanthropic Affairs, Sephora USA
International
Alice’s lecture for the American Chamber of Commerce was ground-breaking.
Attracting foreign, international and local business … it allowed our Embassy to show the value of investing in the arts.

Ms. Zimet is a practiced and fluent public speaker — engaging the audience, integrating their experiences into her presentation, challenging listeners to put themselves in the position of busy, bottom line oriented corporate officers, and presenting how to create packages that can win sponsorships. This is a hot issue in Hungary after 40 years of strict state control and participants left with more ammunition for their strategic plans.
- Cultural Affairs Officer, American Embassy, Hungary
I met Alice in Tokyo and was struck by three things: a fundamental knowledge of dance; a shrewd understanding of what sponsorship can do for a company and a personal commitment to international cultural exchange. From my professional stance — as cultural attaché in both Toyko and London, and as a director of the U.S government’s overseas arts presentation office — I could not have asked for a better collaborator. Brava, Alice

I first met Alice in Versailles — followed by events in Vienna and Jakarta — where she organized private concerts for several hundred guests, each one more important than the next. Her talents are amazing; her spirit even more special. She has an obvious devotion to music, and I consider myself lucky to have benefited so gloriously from her careful and caring planning and graciousness. She’s a star!
