Side Events
In a new addition, delegates who are organising events for their networks or groups alongside the Conference will now have dedicated space in the program to schedule a breakfast or dinner gathering.
Side events are open to all delegates to either host, or attend, during dinner on Monday 7 September and Friday 11 September, or breakfast on Tuesday 8 September, Wednesday 9 September and Thursday 10 September.
Delegates who would like to open their breakfast or dinner Side Event to fellow delegates can submit its details here. Approved side events will be promoted below.
To help delegates choose a venue for any Side Events, Queensland Gives has curated a Social Good Map of Brisbane for the Conference. The map highlights social enterprises, for‑purpose organisations and non‑profits located within a 15‑minute walk of the Brisbane Convention and Exhibition Centre, perfect for meetings, coffees, meals and more. Access the map here.
