There is a lot we're told we need to do. Build a career. Be disciplined. Have a plan. Wake up at 5am. Optimise everything. And somewhere underneath it all, one small question keeps returning.

But, why?

And that's just the beginning of the puzzle - as these questions continue to bottle up within us, how do we resolve them? How do we get steadier and think more clearly? How do we feel confident in the next step?

That is what this evening is for. With an interactive format of a live panel and open Q&A, we openly discuss and talk about the questions we carry within ourselves every day, and work through them together.

Whether it's on the night or anonymously, share your biggest whys amongst the young Sydney community, where everyone has something in common - whether it be past, present or future experiences.

Whether you're still studying or a few years into work, this is for you!

Abhinav grew up in Sydney and built his career at Atlassian, growing from early engineering roles to founding Confluence Whiteboards, and now serving as a Senior Principal Engineer leading frontier AI experiences from San Francisco.
