First Thursdays

Join us for an inspiring evening at First Thursdays this November! We’re thrilled to welcome Ben Thompson, the CEO and Co-Founder of Employment Hero, who will share his incredible journey in building one of Australia’s biggest tech success stories. 🚀 After starting his career in banking and finance, Ben identified a major challenge for small businesses: managing employment was just too complex. So, he rolled up his sleeves and co-founded Employment Hero, a platform that simplifies HR, payroll, and recruitment for over 350,000 businesses worldwide. With a valuation of over A$2 billion, Ben's insights on leadership, growth, and social impact are not to be missed! Whether you're a student, founder, or just curious about startups, this is your chance to learn from a true innovator. Expect engaging discussions, networking opportunities, and a sense of community. Plus, refreshments will be provided! Mark your calendar for Thursday, November 5th, from 5 PM to 7:30 PM at the Michael Crouch Innovation Centre, UNSW Kensington. Bring your networking shoes and get ready for an evening of inspiration! 👟✨
