Škoda - Brilliant Not Famous

Published: Tuesday, 25 July 2017

Car company Škoda decided that I am "brilliant not famous", and created this content piece video to show the strength of their convictions.  :P

Teleport also makes an appearance!  :)

Check out their campaign here:  http://www.skoda.com.au/about/brilliant-not-famous

They also filmed a tv ad with wifi inventor Dr. John O’Sullivan, and a further content piece for young artist Aelita Andre.

Cairns Eye

Published: Friday, 30 June 2017

Returning to my hometown Cairns is always relaxing.  Returning to Cairns in winter is a luxury - because the weather is lovely, and not cold at all.  Centacare have a program where they are mentoring 20 people in launching their companies.  They invited me to give a public lecture to share my experiences and advice in starting a company.  To promote the lecture, the Cairns Post featured me on the cover of their Weekend newspaper magazine.

Global Summit of Women in Tokyo

Published: Sunday, 21 May 2017

I attended the Global Summit of Women in Tokyo, Japan 11-13 May and gave a presentation about aubot, then spoke on a panel.  It was live-translated into Japanese, French and Vietnamese.  It was so awesome to share my experiences.  After the 1.25 hour-long panel, I hung around and answered questions for another 1.25 hours.

It was so cool to meet so many women from around the world.  I love Japan - the food, the people, the culture!  Can’t wait until I go back there.  The next Global Summit of Women is in Sydney in 2018!  So get your tickets quickly!
