2016 Sydney Speaker Series

Business Events Sydney (BESydney) promotes Sydney and New South Wales (NSW) as business event destinations, identifies new event opportunities, and competes to secure these events to bring the world’s best and brightest to the state to work, play and connect.An independent not-for-profit company, BESydney is funded through a partnership between the NSW Government and the private sector, including more than 200 leading hotels, venues, attractions, event suppliers and conference organisers to win these events for the State.A strong business event program – comprising the many conferences, congresses, symposia and incentive programs that global destinations bid competitively to host – strengthens Sydney’s standing as a global city. Business events attract world leaders to our shores. They create opportunities to profile our expertise, to share knowledge, and create and strengthen international collaboration. They are also valuable forums that foster trade and investment, spark innovation and fuel productivity.BESydney has a specialised global team of professionals that spans Australia, Asia, Europe and The Americas. From initial enquiry all the way through to the event, BESydney offers a free-of-charge, professional and personalised service that provides clients with unbiased expert advice, quotes, contacts and time-saving assistance.

Future Human: Discuss
Creationist, evolutionist, somewhere in-between or beyond…regardless of your position, there is little doubt that major changes today will alter our tomorrow forever - technology, our social systems, and even our bodies are evolving.
What will “Future Human” look like? And, will we want it staring back at us in the mirror?
Join us for this thought-provoking session, where we will hear from prominent Australians who are living the future through their work.
