The WISA Power Up Breakfast at Seafood Directions is WISA's premier event. In 2022, the event was sold out within a few weeks of tickets online and we had a long waiting list. An important drawcard for the event was the high profile journalist Annabel Crabb as the keynote speaker (funded by FRDC as part of project 2018-174) who delivered a strong gender equality message while being highly entertaining. WISA received feedback that Power Up was one of Seafood Directions top events.

Objectives

1. increase awareness of the FRDC, WISA and industry’s understanding of gender inequality issues, opportunities and solutions
2. Enable a larger event and high calibre speaker at Power Up 2024
3. increase understanding of gender inequality issues, opportunities and solutions in fishing and aquaculture
