I've got some big news.
Last year I took a gamble, and did something I hoped would have a huge impact for startup people professionals across the APAC region.
Because for years I'd been that person.
I'd reached out to countless others, built networks, and always asked them one question.
"Where's the space for us?"
Time and again, I kept coming up empty handed.
Where were the spaces to hear from others building people practices inside scaling companies?
If you've been in a startup, you know it's nothing like corporate life.
- You're almost always starting from scratch
- Building something on a shoestring.
- Making it awesome and impactful.
And then rebuilding it 12 months later because the company had changed so much.
So after years of seeing other regions have their space, I decided to create one for ours.
That's was the genesis of Startup People Summit.
In it's inaugural year, 800+ people joined the space for them.
The space to learn from others.
To connect with others.
And make the role of a startup People person that little bit easier.
The gamble paid off.
So the big news is this:
- Startup People Summit is returning in 2026.
Clear your calendar for Thursday the 3rd of September.

I cannot wait to share what we're building for this year.
