What got you here, won’t get you there! At some point in a design business’ journey to success, you will need to break your business in order to make (or re-make) it. If you aren’t prepared to disrupt your own business you risk being left behind as new players come into the market with new and better ideas.

Join Vince Frost, CEO & ECD of Frost*collective and Andy Bateman, Founder and CEO of Everyone, as they unpack the common challenges faced by many creative businesses. Whether you are a striving business or a start up, this talk will inspire you to re-design your business in an increasingly disrupted market.

Date: September 8, 6:00pm for 6:30pm start
Address: Frost*collective, 16 Eveleigh St, Redfern

Book your ticket here.

“Break It To Make It” is presented as part of this year’s Sydney Design Festival.

Come in early and enjoy a drink! All deFrost guests will receive a 10% discount at Cake Wines Cellar Door, just next door, during the event.
