Venue: Alpha - Level 2, The Grand

Address: Level 2, 238 Castlereagh Street, Sydney

Please join us for the next Sydney Morning Herald Good Food Symposium, presented by Lightspeed where industry panellists will discuss the topic: Prepare to Thrive in ’25: How to position a hospitality business for success.

We’re gathering industry to discuss a ‘nourish and flourish’ approach that everyone from hospitality novices to veterans to the intrigued general public will find fascinating and insightful. Guests will pick up practical tips and advice – from what you can achieve on a small budget; how good culture can help retain staff; whether you need to hire a full-time HR person; the importance of processes and systems; and how to find the time to work on culture in between everything else on your to-do list.

Our Sydney host and panellists are:

Sarah Norris (Host) – Head of Good Food

Jeremy Courmadias – CEO, Fink Group

Claire Van Vuuren – Chef & Owner, Bloodwood*

Petrina Baker – Director, Baker and Frost

Alexander Kelly – Co-Owner, Baba’s Place*

Bridget Raffal – Where’s Nick, co-founded Women and Revolution (previously head sommelier of Sixpenny)*

Pete Learmonth – Product Manager, Lightspeed

All are welcome and although it is free of charge to attend, registration is necessary.
