KEY NOTE SPEAKER

Scott Boocock Scott Boocock is a passionate Australian entrepreneur and presenter – on television and in the public forum. He proudly sits on the ‘Women In Innovation’ board, and exhibits an impressive and diverse background in management, strategy, development, innovation and start-ups.

In 2012, while hanging out the washing, how, he wondered, can I hang my wife’s strappy evening dress while leaving no peg, line, or sun marks? His answer, a peg with hooks, which Scott went on to design, manufacture, and patent in 44 countries.

7

Hegs Pegs went on to win the ‘Housewares and Objects’ category at the Good Design Awards.

Then, shortly after Scott was selected to appear on Channel 10’s, television reality show Shark Tank and secured a deal with Naomi Simson, founder of Red Balloon. Scott’s story continues to inspire inventors everywhere to believe that with perseverance and courage they, too, can make their dreams come true.

He has led a colourful career that includes floating a myriad of successful business ventures: an event management

company, a car wash, an internet café in Alaska, a transportable toilet enterprise, opal selling at sea, and even an ice-skating rink in Alice Springs.

Scott’s less known accomplishments include project development director for Sunrise Children’s Villages in Cambodia and founder of the Make-A-Wish Foundation’s branch in Australia’s Northern Territory along with years working with juveniles on behalf of the Northern Territory Department of Correctional Services.

Scott is the founder and CEO of South Australian company HEGS Australia, where he spends much of his time working with aspiring entrepreneurs to help bring their ideas to life. Scott is the first to remind any hopeful innovator that the key to success is a good support network, a great team and good old fashioned hard work.
