Join us for a fireside chat with Lisa King. We'll kick things off with networking at 6pm. October is #SG300 month where Startup Grind aims to host 300 events around the world in 1 month. Lisa launched Eat My Lunch with the belief that clever business solutions can solve big social issues. After 15 years working in large FMCGs, marketing some of the country’s biggest food brands, Lisa decided to put her commercial acumen towards doing something that would make a positive impact in the community. As a mother of two children, she couldn’t fathom that in a country like New Zealand, 27% of children live in poverty and an estimated 25,000 go to school every day without lunch. In just three years we’ve given 1,000,000 lunches to Kiwi kids attending 91 schools in Auckland, Hamilton, Wellington and Christchurch. Eat My Lunch is the recipient of numerous awards including three Westpac Auckland Business Awards in 2016, Deloittes Fast 50 Rising Star 2016 and 2017 and TVNZ Marketing Awards 2016.
