Summary:

Join us for an intimate dinner with Preet Chandi, also known as Polar Preet, an Army veteran, record-breaking polar explorer, and the first woman of colour to complete a solo expedition across Antarctica.

Over dinner, Preet will share her extraordinary journey across one of the harshest environments on Earth, an experience that tested her mental resilience, self-belief, and adaptability at every turn. She has completed three solo expeditions, earned multiple Guinness World Records, and is now training for her next challenge at the North Pole.

What founders can expect:

While few of us will trek across Antarctica, many face our own versions of isolation, uncertainty, and shifting goals. Preet’s story offers powerful insights for any founder navigating high-stakes challenges.

She will explore:

how to build and sustain resilience under pressure
how to reframe failure as part of progress
how purpose can drive you beyond your limits

About Preet Chandi:

Preet is a former Army officer, physiotherapist, and global speaker. She completed her first polar expedition in 2022 and has since achieved the longest solo unsupported polar ski journey ever recorded. Her story is one of ambition, perseverance, and boundary-breaking achievement.

This dinner is an opportunity to reflect, reset, and draw inspiration from a journey that speaks to every founder with bold ambitions.
