Pause Fest returns for 2020 featuring UENO, Airtasker, Giantstep and more

The 10th installment of Pause Fest features a bumper lineup of local and international speakers leading the field in creativity and business.

If you have a creative spark and are wanting to excel in the business industry, Pause Fest enables you to let your imagination run wild and be inspired by world-leaders who continue to do just that.

The independent festival sees movers and shakers from Google, Adidas, Giantstep, Airtasker, Netflix, Facebook, Patagonia, Walt Disney, and Mercedes-Benz take to the stage to share their wealth of expertise among other high achievers.

Described as the ‘Oktoberfest for business’ Pause Fest explores the theme ‘New Odyssey’ and explores the question of ‘who owns the future?’

The three-day event tackles nail-biting questions in business and creative industries and asks you to determine how our world will build capacity for the next generation of entrepreneurs to decipher and solve critical social problems – and succeed?

Pause Fest founder George Hedon hopes established and would-be entrepreneurs can take new-found knowledge away from the 2020 event.

“Pause Fest was created to inspire a new wave of thinking, seeing future and doing business,” he said. “It’s not a conference – it’s a movement of new thinking and doing.

“It attracts curious minds who seek change in their business and personal lives.”

Major headline speakers will be chief executive UENO Haraldur Thorleifsson, Giantstep director Sungku Kang, UX director of Google Rich Fulcher and chairman of Airtasker James Spenceley.

With multiple stages to access, workshops to attend and mentoring sessions to evolve your ideas, Pause Fest is the place change-makers come together and begin making a difference.

The three-day event will also see Melbourne’s own ACMI unveil its new brand, visual identity and key features. Attendees will receive a sneak peek at the cultural centre’s renovation and transformation from chief executive Seb Chan.

Pause Fest is you chance to create and develop innovative ideas on how business should work in the future.

More than 2000 attendees are expected to descend on Melbourne Convention Exhibition Centre from February 5-7 2020 for Pause Fest.
