Event Description

Experience the cerebral feast of a lifetime at fastBREAK!

This monthly series of rapid-fire interactive talks served on the last Friday of each month mixes innovation into every recipe on the fastBREAK menu.

Each event hosts five savvy young creative thinkers who transform five minutes into an idea delicacy using the top-notch ingredients of creativity, commercialisation, collaboration, connections and conversation.

What's stopping you? - Celebrating International Women's Month!

Thought and action are two separate entities that command cohabitation. Had the females leading the suffrage movement in 1895 simply pondered the idea of voting rights, government as we know it today would not exist.
The time has come yet again to ask what, if any, hurdles are left in the path of modern women?
