SUMMARY:TEDxPerth Pitch Lab
DESCRIPTION:TEDxPerth is excited to present their next community event: TEDxPerth 1-minute Idea Workshop! \nHear from the TEDxPerth Curation Team on how an idea is cultivated and refined. Attendees will learn a simple framework to clarify their own ideas into a one-minute pitch\, and then will have the opportunity to share their ideas with the group. (*there may be prizes!) \nStatistically\, a goal has a 10% chance of being actioned if we only THINK about it\, but a 90% chance if it is TOLD TO SOMEONE ELSE. If you believe you have an idea worth spreading\, or if you know of someone with an idea\, this event is the perfect opportunity to amplify the possibilities!

SUMMARY:WA | YEP-FACCI Shaping Energy’s Future Through International Collaboration
DESCRIPTION:The French Australian Chamber of Commerce & Industry (FACCI)​ and Young Energy Professionals (YEP)​ invite you to join the panel discussion: ‘Shaping Energy’s Future Through International Collaboration’ on 25 March 2026 at 5:30 PM at the GHD Building​ in the Perth CBD. The event will feature a moderated panel discussion followed by casual drinks and networking\, specifically designed for the Franco-Australian business community in Perth and young energy professionals. \nPanelists: \n\nFrancois Dupeyroux (Moderator) – Managing Director of Sia\nBill Johnston – Former Minister\, Non Executive Director\, Helping with strategy of the McKell Institute\nIris Bua – Segment Director\, Power and Grid of Schneider Electric\nPeter Sadler – Dispute Resolution Partner\, HFW Australia\n\nThe discussion is built around the inherent complexity of energy innovation\, specifically the urgent need to balance the “energy trilemma” while managing long-lived infrastructure within a heavily regulated and politically sensitive environment. Because these constraints can often slow down vital experimentation\, we will highlight how cross-border cooperation and harmonised frameworks serve as the ultimate catalysts for change. \n

SUMMARY:‘Morning Tea & Learn’ with Dr Greydon Gilmore
DESCRIPTION:Join this event to hear from Dr Greydon Gilmore\, a Canadian neurophysiology expert visiting Perth to connect with WA’s biomedical community.\n\n\n\n\nThis talk will highlight Greydon’s innovative work developing open-source software to help neurosurgeons plan and evaluate surgical procedures. The goal was to make these tools more practical\, accurate\, and easier to use in real clinical settings. By bringing together medical imaging\, brain signal data\, and software development\, this work aimed to translate complex research methods into real world tools that can directly support patient care. More broadly\, it shows the entrepreneurial opportunity to build surgical technologies that can improve precision and create new opportunities for innovation in healthcare. \nThis event is ideal for researchers\, clinicians\, and innovators interested in neurophysiology\, imaging\, biomedical engineering\, or translational neuroscience.
