Talking technology at breakfast

THE future of technology will be the focus at Torquay Commerce and Tourism’s next Sunrise Series breakfast, to be held next week at Peppers The Sands Resort.

The guest speaker will be local Torquay IT entrepreneur Chris Horden, who is also one of the board members of Technology Geelong.

Mr Horden will share how Technology Geelong is driving digital transformation through technology, innovation and entrepreneurship.

Formerly known as ICT Geelong, the not-forprofit organisation’s focus is to support Greater Geelong’s transition from a traditional primary and manufacturing base, to a knowledge-based, digital economy.

In terms of the local Torquay region, Technology Geelong is here to help business owners adapt from a predominantly surfing-focused industry to a true all-round visitor destination with many natural and other assets where the use of technology is the future.

Technology Geelong provides networking and education resources and events, member development activities, tech speakers and advocacy.

The Sunrise Series events exist to provide an environment for local business owners to connect, form relationships, be inspired and educated on different subjects by leaders in their industries.

Come along for a delicious breakfast, great speaker and fantastic networking opportunities.

The TCT breakfast will be held at Peppers The Sands Resort, Sands Boulevarde, Torquay, on Tuesday June 26 from 7am to 8.30am.

Tickets are $25 for TCT members and $40 for non-members.
