Following the Captains of Industry Roundtable, guests gathered for the inaugural Compass Dinner at Ripples waterfront restaurant, Darling Harbour. It was the perfect finale to a day of insight, collaboration and industry-wide connection. The evening brought together more than 80 captains, owners, key partners and industry leaders for an elegant dinner designed to inspire, reflect and continue the conversations sparked throughout the day. Set against a backdrop of a glowing Darling Harbour, guests enjoyed a relaxed but refined atmosphere, moving seamlessly from the intensity of the Roundtable to an evening of storytelling, laughter and thoughtful dialogue. The Compass Dinner was created with intention – to close the day not with formality, but with meaning. A chance for our industry’s leaders to unwind, connect on a deeper level and share perspectives in a setting that felt intimate, warm and genuinely celebratory. The highlight of the evening was a captivating ‘fireside-style’ conversation between two exceptional Australians: Dr Daniel Nour, founder of Street Side Medics and the 2022 Young Australian of the Year, and pioneering explorer Mike McDowell, whose career has taken him from Antarctica to the Titanic. Their contrasting journeys – one rooted in compassion and community impact, the other in discovery, science and fearless exploration – offered guests a rare blend of inspiration and insight. Another special moment was the auction of a limited edition Seiko Prospex timepiece which raised $10,000 for the valuable work of the International SeaKeepers Society.

Primošten, Croatia, is a hidden gem nestled along the Adriatic coast. Let me share some captivating details about this picturesque town: Historic Old Town: Primošten’s old town is perched on a peninsula that was originally an island. The island’s teardrop shape looks barely connected to the mainland. As you approach Primošten, you’ll see the Church of St. George atop the hill—a sight to behold! 🏰 Beaches: Primošten boasts stunning beaches. Mala Raduča Beach, in particular, has been recognized as one of Croatia’s top 10 beaches. Crystal-clear waters and golden sands await! 🌊☀️ Fascinating History: About five centuries ago, residents fled from the Turks and settled on the nearby island of Gola Glava. They built a wooden bridge, which they raised during times of danger. Hence, the town’s name: Primošten, meaning “bridged over.” 🌉 Our Lady of Loretto: Primošten is home to one of the world’s tallest statues of the Virgin Mary. The 17-meter-high monument, Our Lady of Loretto, is said to be visible from the Italian coast. A visit here is a must! 🙏 Charming Mix: Primošten blends historical architecture with beautiful beaches. Velika Raduča Beach and the islet of Smokvica offer idyllic spots to soak up the sun. 🏖️ Whether you’re exploring the stone houses, dining at local restaurants, or simply enjoying the coastal breeze, Primošten promises an unforgettable experience. 🇭🇷✨
