The highlight of Term 3 in our 2022 program was a day at the Sydney Startup Hub, home to the highest density startup space in the southern hemisphere, supported by the state government’s Investment NSW and housing our accelerator partner, Tank Stream Labs. This day encompassed hands-on experiences with industry experts, and a tour of the hub, where Tank Stream Labs showed students what the future of work looks like– podcasting studios, AR/VR green rooms, and breakout spaces for creativity and brainstorming. At the centre of the event was a speed networking lunch with female mentors, drawn from some of the most impressive business and STEM leaders in the country. Guest speakers, Jan Mason, CEO of Quest Payment Systems, and Kim Graham-Nye, Co-CEO & Co-Founder of gDiapers, also spoke on how sustainability is a focus for their businesses. Students built their confidence in communication and mindset coaching sessions with Julie Demsey. Technical workshops such as UX/UI with Ananda Vasudevan (Senior designer @ WooliesX), and business modelling with Audrey Gan (Engineer and Consultant @ Deloitte), helped introduce students to new technical skillsets and tools. Special thanks to Microsoft who sponsored these sessions, making laptops available for all of the student groups. We wrapped up the day with a fantastic maker space session with Alexandra Millward (Educator), building on design thinking and engineering skills.
