It’s one thing to attract talent to Tasmania – but how do we retain it?

At this Studio Chats event we engaged in open, thought-provoking discussions around this critical question. With such a diverse group of industries, roles, and backgrounds in the room, the conversation was vibrant and insightful, exploring how we can not only attract but also keep the best talent right here in Tasmania.

A huge thank you to our host, Todd Babiak, CEO of Brand Tasmania, and to our fantastic panellists, Ben Cashman and Cecelia Catherine Loppy, for sharing their perspectives. Special thanks also to Brand Tasmania for partnering with us on this event and to our sponsor, OLG Office, for their support.
