Simon Griffiths: Profit with Purpose, thanks to NAB

Event description

This event, brought to us by National Australia Bank (NAB), will open with a panel discussion, hosted by MC Amanda Jarrett, with 3 local Territory Success Story speakers including: Anita Synnott from Natural Territory, Brooke Summers from Studio B Designs, and Doug McBean from North Horizon Heli Adventures. 

Following the discussion Simon Griffiths will deliver his keynote presentation:

Lessons from Running a Purpose-Led Business

Simon will take you on the journey from idea to globally disruptive brand, without compromising on purpose.

Driven by a passion to use business to give back, in 2010, Simon had the idea to start a toilet paper brand that helps to build toilets in the developing world. In 2012, he launched Who Gives A Crap with a viral crowdfunding campaign.  

As well as the Who Gives A Crap story, Simon will share key lessons learnt along the way that can apply to every organisation. These will include Doing Good is Good Business - the idea that it’s possible to build a bigger and better business by donating profits rather than holding onto them - and the power of Being in the Business of Delight.  

This action-packed talk will make you laugh and feel inspired - both to dig deep and find resilience when it’s needed, as well as how to think differently about innovation and bringing your ideas to life.

A cash bar will be available to purchase drinks on arrival from 4:30pm, doors open from 5:15pm, event will commence at 5:30pm.
