Turn everyday challenges into powerful business opportunities! 💡

Join us for Idea Spark: How to Spot and Create Winning Business Opportunities, a dynamic, hands-on workshop designed to help you discover where great ideas really come from and how to turn them into something tangible.

You’ll explore how real problems can spark innovation, learn simple frameworks for identifying and validating opportunities, and hear from inspiring speakers who’ve done exactly that.

Our guests, Kirsty Watson and Jennifer Barry, will share how they transformed personal and industry challenges into thriving ventures, proving that problems really can become possibilities.

You’ll also take part in a fun, interactive workshop to generate ideas of your own, followed by a short networking session to connect, collaborate, and share insights with other aspiring entrepreneurs.
