About This Event

A joint event with ISACA and ISC2 Chapters - From Gen Z to Gen A and the Boomer Wise Guys and Gals This event brings together two groups with a shared but often misaligned interest: students and young professionals preparing to enter the IT workforce, and the Industry Professionals seeking to recruit and develop talent that delivers real organisational value. Rather than a traditional careers fair or one-directional presentation format, this event is built as a mutual learning experience. Students and Industry Professionals each articulate their expectations of one another, explore the gap between those expectations, and then work together in mixed groups on realistic, pre-scripted problems — building genuine professional relationships along the way. The audience mix is approximately 70% students and 30% Industry Professionals, keeping small-group discussion rich and well-facilitated without professional voices being diluted or overwhelmed.
