In a rapidly evolving digital world, many disadvantaged groups remain excluded from the benefits of digital services. This conference will focus on the need to support these groups and promote digital inclusion.
“By highlighting collaborative efforts and innovative solutions, we aim to foster new conversations and partnerships to ensure everyone, regardless of their background or abilities, has equal access to digital services and opportunities.
Be part of an inspiring event that amplifies diverse voices, shares valuable insights, and drives real, measurable steps toward gender equality. While women have made incredible strides—breaking barriers, reshaping policies, and sparking global movements—there is still much work to be done. Now more than ever, we must come together to push forward and create lasting change.
Bringing together women from different generations, industries, and professions, this event goes beyond celebrating past achievements. We will explore innovative strategies for a more equitable future. With an audience of over 500 attendees, this is your chance to connect, learn, and be inspired alongside a community dedicated to progressing diversity, equity, and inclusion.

December sees the return of our our Future by Design program with an event not to be missed!

“How can exponential technology help deliver better outcomes for all?”

MC’ed by global thought leader, Marion Burchell
Powered by your inspiring guided networked conversations!
With the dawn of a new age dominated by advanced technology, we have new opportunities to create better outcomes that truly drive economic, social and environmental outcomes in a way that is ethical – generating a future where we all win!
In Australia’s dynamic landscape of innovation and social impact, social enterprises and startups are key to driving positive change. Success involves not only great ideas but also navigating governance and legal frameworks for sustainability and compliance.
Impact Seed and WASEC are excited to collaborate and bring you a workshop on governance and legal structures. We’ll tackle key questions: Which legal structure to adopt? How to manage an effective board? What regulations to comply with? How can social enterprises advocate for better regulations?
We’re pleased to welcome expert speaker, Keith Rovers, leader of Minter Ellison’s Social Impact Practice and recipient of the 2023 Individual Outstanding Achievement Award at the Australian Impact Investment Awards. With 30 years of experience across various sectors, Keith also holds board positions at several organisations including White Box Enterprises.
The session will be facilitated by Chelsea Stanway from Impact Seed, a lawyer and social impact consultant with over 12 years of experience. Chelsea is dedicated to addressing social disadvantage through economic empowerment, having worked with diverse organisations in both urban and remote areas of Australia.
Tickets will be heavily discounted for social enterprise members of WASEC.
