This year marked the launch of a partnership between Saxton Speakers and Get Global.
Get Global is an annual one-day event which brings the industry together on an international scale to give buyers and exhibitors the opportunity to meet with the right contacts and build their network globally.
Saxton Speakers sponsored the Get Smart Zone at the event and after in depth consulting and collaboration with organisers, Gary and Donna Kessel, produced an outstanding speaker line up that engaged and delighted attendees throughout the day.

Curtis McGrath is a champion athlete, decorated veteran and media commentator. Curtis shared the story of the day his life changed forever. At 24 and two months into a tour of Taliban-rife areas of Afghanistan he stepped on a homemade landmine and tragically lost both legs in the blast.
Thirty minutes after the incident, fully aware of his grim situation, he joked with his rescuers about becoming a Paralympian.
By 2016 had won a gold medal at the Rio Paralympic Games.
Curtis' story of resilience and the power of mindset had attendees in tears - a true story of triumph over tragedy.
One of Australia's leading strategists and storytellers (and co-founder of Four Pillars Gin), Matt Jones, closed the day's program with his presentation In Craft We Trust. Matt explored the Four Pillars Gin story and unpacked the importance of finding your purpose, creating remarkable customer experiences, and how to highlight your 'craft.'
After Matt's presentation attendees hit the cocktail networking event to sample Australia's number one selling craft gin for themselves.
