Serious Women's Business conference
13-15 September 2010, Melbourne Convention and Exhibition Centre

We believe the next generation of leaders cannot lean on the achievements of their predecessors. Having the courage to move beyond the assumptions of the past and to consider new possibilities is the first step. Creating a new conversation is the next!
In 2010, we challenge both individuals and organisations to get out of their comfort zone and step up and be part of a new conversation.
SWB Step Up 2010 is a forum to inspire breakthroughs, create new opportunities, learn new skills, establish new relationships and discover new possibilities, both professionally and personally. SWB is an investment in women’s talent and a way to recognise and celebrate their diversity.
This is an opportunity to expand your understanding by investing attention and energy into building a repertoire of insights, both practical and inspirational, to help us all move forward. An experience where what comes after will never be the same as what came before.
SWB is not an ordinary conference, it is a 2 ½ day immersive experience. SWB is an investment in women’s talent and a way to recognise and celebrate their diversity.
Speakers and panellists include CEOs, company directors, senior politicians, leaders from the public and not-for-profit sectors, emerging leaders in business and politics as well as experts in business trends, women’s issues, politics and health. In 2010, with the engagement and full support of speakers like Sex Discrimination Commissioner Elizabeth Broderick and Non Executive Director Jillian Segal, the program has developed yet again into a must attend event. If you’re seeking a hub of Australia’s top corporate women, you will find it at SWB.
