About this event
ABOUT THIS WORKSHOP
It’s sometimes hard to dream up an idea to solve a complex problem. This half day workshop will bring you into a room with others passionate about creating change in our region. Not only that, but people who will roll up their sleeves and make stuff happen.
Your facilitator will guide discussion through a structured program to make good use of everyone’s time. As part of a team you are free to dream up ideas that could be turned into a business to help the Snowy Monaro move forward and be a centre of excellence for innovative business.
- the workshop is open to any participant wanting to contribute (either with an idea or keen to support others who may have one); no particular expertise is necessary.
- participants will be allocated to teams focused on their area of interest
- a facilitated, structured program will be followed to ensure the best use of people's time
- You can choose if you wish to own the idea and develop it into a business, or leave it as a community idea that another person could develop.
