Closing Keynote Address

Embrace the Shake: Transforming Limitations into Opportunities

Phil-Hansen - 300

Speaker:
Phil Hansen
Internationally Recognized Multimedia Artist, Author and Innovator

In today’s fast-changing business environment, creativity and innovation aren’t optional, they’re essential.

Artist and TED speaker Phil Hansen shares the powerful story behind Embrace the Shake, born from his own experience of developing a tremor that threatened to end his artistic career. By reframing his limitation as a catalyst for creativity, Phil not only rebuilt his artistic practice, he transformed it.

Through stunning visuals, live interactive art and practical insight, Phil challenges participants to rethink the obstacles in front of them and discover how limitations can spark new ideas, fresh perspectives and unexpected opportunities.

Participants will learn to question assumptions, reduce resistance to constraints and tap into creativity as a resource for navigating change, solving problems and moving forward with greater confidence.
