Event details

Simon Griffiths: Profit with Purpose, thanks to NAB

Event description

This event, brought to us by platinum sponsor National Australia Bank (NAB), will open with a panel discussion, hosted by Master of Ceremonies Amanda Jarrett, with 3 local Territory Success Story speakers. 

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, sharing how he and his team took the business from strength to strength, without compromising on their 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.
