Ep 31: Liz Jackson - Brilliant Business Kids

On this show I am joined by Liz Jackson. Liz is the education &
program director at startup.business. She has a diverse teaching
background spanning over 10 years. In 2018 she launched the first
National Brilliant Business Kids Festival to build a safe and
sustainable ecosystem where academia, government and industry
engage with young people with a focus on solving local and global
issues using innovation and an entrepreneurial mindset. On this
episode Liz discusses the future of education, and the journey she
has been on to bring the teaching of entrepreneurial skills and
mindset to kids in schools. She discusses the importance of helping
kids to think for themselves, find their passion, be resilient and
develop problem solving skills. She also highlights the upcoming
National Brilliant Kids Festival and Pitch Competition. The
evolution of our education system is something we should all be
interested in. I hope you take something away from this episode.
