Advita Patel
Founder
After what we’ve experienced over the last couple of years, I want to create something that helps light the fire in our bellies again, gives us inspiration, brings excitement and also build a community of like-minded folks so we can continue the conversations beyond the event. It’ll be an event that will help you push the boundaries and give you the support you need to future-proof your skills as a leader.
Over the years I’ve been frustrated at conferences that never had representation on stage. So, for me it was critically important that the speakers were not only representative but also from a range of industries. As much as I love learning from fellow practitioners it’s imperative that we widen our horizons and learn good practice from other areas of business.
