THE CALL
To build a collective of unlike minds with a passion for making a more ambitious Australia (and world). Our aim is to gather diverse sets of people to challenge points-of-view and unlock new insights on old perspectives. We’re not here to agree on everything, we’re not here to learn or to network. We’re here to get shit done. To move Australia forward at an exponential rate of change, powered by the most inspiring minds in the country.
THE JOURNEY
There were no spectators and no speakers at s p a c e, making the fully immersive experience completely participatory. s p a c e cadets brought an open mind and a willingness to share what was on it, ensuring their brain and ideas were active for the full three days. We disconnected in one of the most inspiring places on earth, immersed in conversations with strangers, agitators and restless activators, and explored existing ideas in different contexts, s p a c e was where ideas meet influence.
