Todays video comes to you live from the inaugural Blender festival in Wollongong
To keep you inspired and on track from time to time Good Company Coaching conducts guest interviews with leading industry luminaries.
At Mind Shift I had the pleasure of speaking with Ben Perry, one of the founding directors of Tom Thumb, and curator of the Blender Festival. Ben gives us a peek behind the curtain, from concept to curation, of the Blender Festival.
So if you want to find out why the visionary Wollongong City Council:
- Don’t want to simply build more park benches.
- Do want to build a city culture of innovation. and
- Decided a curated festival that showcases: Music, Technology & The Arts, is the catalyst for doing just that.
Then don’t miss this video.
On song with the Mind Shift ethos my panel topic was: “The Human Machine: technology is part of us, what’s the benefits & risks?â€.
