INNOVATION LEADERS – SCHOLARSHIPS TO ATTEND CREATIVE INNOVATION GLOBAL

Creative Innovation Global is excited to offer up to 10 places to the conference for emerging leaders from any sector.

“When it comes to the future, there are three kinds of people: those who let it happen, those who make it happen, and those who wonder what happened.”

We are searching for the most outstanding emerging leaders and innovators from across Australia who are creating the future. They are game-changers in society who are not content to just let the future happen, but rather are actively working to implement ideas that make a difference… Leaders that may at times feel afraid or uncertain, yet still rise to confront the needs and challenges of society head on.

Right now, the Race to the Future is occurring faster than we can imagine. Disruption is everywhere. The actions we take now will impact future generations in a powerful way and we need to find innovative solutions to the great problems of today, to make them the opportunities of the future.

The Creative Innovation Global scholarships are provided to emerging leaders to prepare them for the challenges of tomorrow and help them access key decision makers across society and the economy.
