Stickyeyes was host to the event, where 20 speakers from across the digital and tech scene came together to share their words of wisdom and inspirational stories to a sold-out audience.

Following the format of our 40×40 design event last year, each of our 20 speakers had just three minutes to share their story in front of an audience of close to 100 people.

Prominent speakers from across the tech scene, with experience across the private, public and third sectors, came together to talk about a wide range of topics, including the importance of community, personal and career development, mental health, work-life balance and the rise of artificial intelligence.

Every speaker gave it their all, spoke superbly and was met with rapturous applause, with highlights of the night including:

  • Isabel Hunt sharing stories from her 30-year career and the importance of taking risks along the way.
  • Pauline Narvas explaining how she discovered the power of community.
  • Penny Hindle on the importance of mentoring.
  • Jo Penkert sharing her thoughts on the importance of retaining professional integrity under pressure.
  • An emotional story from Lauren York where she asked (and answered) whether women can lead a business, have a family and be happy.

A huge thanks to everyone who attended, spoke and supported the event – we hope to see you again very soon!
