Today on the show we host the founder of Pause Fest George Hedon, I wanted to get George on the show because he has been able to create an industry industry-driven movement with a mission to bring diverse intelligence together to fuel the next generation forward. Pause Fest has been described as 'Innovation Capital', 'Octoberfest for business' and 'Woodstock for digital natives’. In 2019, we welcomed over 500 startups, 1500 businesses and over 24 media outlets from across Australia.

Over the course of nine years, our event has seen 65,000 movers, shakers and creative change-makers come through its doors. To help solve some of the greatest challenges we face, we need analogue moments where the brightest minds come together and blend various perspectives, skills and talents into a beautiful mess.

George is an interesting character and I gained so much learning about his approach to bringing a chaotic occasion into something that brings so much value to society.
