COVID-19

A guide to event industry resources for COVID-19. [Updated 26 March] Dear event industry friends, I don’t really have the words to summarise the current landscape for us as Australians and also event professionals. What do you say when almost your entire industry is illegal overnight? These measures are super important yet also impossibly tough. […]

Home sweet home.

[A two minute read] I love travelling – for work or for fun – it’s so wonderful to experience other cultures and explore new landscapes. I’ve just returned from my first Intrepid trip through Spain, Portugal and Morocco, an incredible adventure. As exciting as travel can be, I always love coming home. Descending back into […]

Sustainable event guide.

[A four minute read] I’ve long campaigned for the event industry to use our influence to positively impact sustainability, to lead by example, educate and inspire action – within the industry and the lives of those who attend our events. Increasingly, consumers are demanding sustainable practices at the events they attend. Some businesses are leading […]

Running on fire.

[A five minute read] Before you read about my journey running up a volcano, check out PART ONE here. THE START LINE. Soundtrack: Cheap Thrills.

Crack crackers.

The crack of snacks. My checklist for a perfect snack: one I can make in bulk and keep at my desk, a snack I can take to a party [and even friends allergic to anything healthy will enjoy], a snack that will save me when I’m too busy to eat a proper meal, one I […]

Sustainable events.

[A four minute read] Recently, I was lucky enough to score tickets to the Responsible Business Events [RBE] conference being held in Copenhagen in October, as well as the opening keynote for sister event Sustainable Brands [SB]. Copenhagen happens to be one of my favourite places, so I was cheering on multiple fronts. I was born […]

THE carry-on pack list.

[A three minute read] I try to avoid checking in luggage at all costs. I spent weeks preparing for my month in Colombia [in 2016] so I could pack efficiently enough to only take carry on and I loved travelling light. But there are times when it’s tricky to not check in bags – like […]

C2 2017: The dossier.

[A five minute read + photos] A few months ago, I was invited to attend C2 Montréal as part of a global delegation of business and event peeps. This made me more excited than a kid at Disneyland. For eons, I had looked to C2 as the industry benchmark – for innovation, inspiration and ideas. Looking back at […]
