Power Up Breakfast 2022

For many at Seafood Directions, the WISA Power Up was a highlight of the conference! Ever popular, WISA’s Power Up Breakfast was sold out three months before the conference. Hosting 120 people, Power Up was an opportunity to network with industry leaders, innovators and disrupters from all sectors of the seafood industry.

This year, WISA’s high-profile speaker was Annabel Crabb, one of Australia's most beloved journalists, who gave attendees insights and experiences on working as a woman in a male dominated industry, while also being highly entertaining.

The MC for the event was WISA President, Heidi Mumme. Board Directors Sam Nowland and Claire Webber held a conversation after Annabel’s keynote, discussing the challenges of having both a fulfilling career and family.

On the menu was local Rocky Point cold smoked grouper, and Umar Nguyen (a.k.a The Fish Girl) provided each table with a sample of Scampi Caviar. Each attendee received a goody bag, including Kansom abalone sauce and a WISA keep cup.
