‘Entrepreneurs in Conversation’ will take a unique look at the entrepreneurial journey, sharing the experience through a candid and probing interview with a diverse audience made up of students, entrepreneurs and the wider business community. Every entrepreneur has a great story. They have worked hard, taken risks, thought outside the box and overcome personal and professional obstacles to get where they are.

Each event will focus on overcoming setbacks and sustaining success as our guest speakers share an intimate portrait of their fears, strengths, humour, resilience and hopes for the future.

Networking time after each session will offer the audience  a chance to mix with the speakers and each other.

You are invited to the first session, which will delve into the lives and careers of South Australian icon Maggie Beer and 2012 Australian of the Year Marita Cheng on Friday 30 August , from 9.30am – 2.30pm  at Flinders University, Victoria Square.

Lunch and morning tea will be provided. Entry is free but bookings essential: see the New Venture Institute Events page for details.
