Brisbane, Australia - Small99's People, Planet, Pastry

People Planet Pastry

Do you work in or are you involved in sustainability? Or are you simply interested in or curious about the subject? If so, come along to this People, Planet, Pastry event to meet like-minded professionals, executives, business owners and individuals who are taking action on sustainability. Learn about what is going on locally, share insights on how to overcome barriers and make new friends!

This relaxed and informal event brings people together to learn more about sustainability and take action.

The sister event, People, Planet, Pint, brings people together to learn more and chat about climate, while our “Pastry” series has a similar focus, but in a breakfast setting over coffee!

This is an open event where anyone is welcome, so if you’re curious about what’s going on, come on down!

Information about how to find the Hibiscus Bar & Terrace in the Hyatt Regency

When you come up the escalators from Queen Street or in the lift from Burnett Lane, look for the main hotel reception desk.

When you are looking at the reception desk, there is a short corridor to the right. Walk down that corridor and enter the lifts at the end.

Take the lift up to the 4th floor. Exit the lift and walk straight ahead down a short corridor, and then take the first right and you will see the Hibiscus Bar & Terrace directly ahead.

We will be outside on the roof terrace to the right near some standing height tables. Look for the Blue People Planet table signs.

Our Sponsor

Small99 is delighted to partner with Sage who will become our key People Planet Pastry sponsor.

The support of Sage will allow us to cover our event cost (including pastries), but also to expand to more cities and keep the conversations and decarbonisation actions growing.

Sage is helping SMBs decarbonise through tech solutions and education.

Conrad Langridge, Sage Earth:

“We have seen the success of the People Planet Pint series run by Adam and the team, and having attended a number of sessions we know the value this is bringing the small business community, we wanted to support People Planet Pastry series to build on that success but in a way that focuses on SMB decarbonisation as a direct action."
