We’re back into the swing of things right after Golden Week with our first event of our new event series; IPWS Thought Activator.

IPWS Thought Activator is a monthly series that connects people through meaningful conversations. The aim is to help you expand your network and more effectively make valuable connections by taking part in an informal, guided activity. Each event is centered around a specific theme, which attendees will reflect over in smaller groups, making it easy to get to know one another while gaining insight and perspective.

The themes for Thought Activator events range from topics that are too often not given the recognition or attention they deserve, to issues that are old and familiar, but in need of a fresh perspective. During the event, our Activator of the Month will introduce and share their expertise on the topic of the evening. Following the short presentation, attendees are encouraged to reflect on related questions, while networking throughout the evening.

We have three Thought Activators scheduled before the end of the year, taking place on the second Wednesday of every month at the same venue each time.

Make sure to mark these dates in your calendar:

Oct. 10 – A Different take on Leadership “Women Don’t need to act like men to own our space and our power” [- Rebekah Neumann, WeWork Cofounder]

Nov. 14 – The Future of Work; a night of reverse mentoring

Dec. 12 – The Trouble with Time Management; we can have it all – just not everyday

Please also mark the date of November 29th for our main event of the quarter, The Impact of AI on Inequality. Our speakers will debate this topic from two opposing viewpoints; that which sees AI as a positive impact, reducing inequality, and that which sees AI as an accelerator of inequality.

We warmly welcome all professional levels, all nationalities, and both women and men to join our events and to become IPWS members. By becoming a member, you will save significantly on event ticket prices, and also receive other member benefits from our many partners.
