Beyond its renowned catering and social impact initiatives, Hamlet CEO Emily Briffa is available as a keynote speaker, panellist, or facilitator for conferences and corporate events.
A recognised social entrepreneur and leader in inclusive employment, Emily brings a compelling perspective on building workplaces and communities where everyone can thrive. As Tasmania’s Local Hero in the Australian of the Year Awards 2026 and a Westpac Social Change Fellow, she is helping shape national conversations around inclusive leadership, workforce participation, social enterprise, and the future of work.
Drawing on her experience leading one of Tasmania’s most innovative social enterprises, Emily shares practical insights into creating meaningful employment pathways, balancing purpose with performance, and driving measurable social impact. Her engaging and authentic presentation style has resonated with audiences ranging from intimate leadership forums to major industry conferences, including the Tasmanian Tourism Conference.
For event organisers seeking a Tasmanian perspective, Emily’s speaking engagements can be paired with Hamlet’s catering services, creating memorable networking events, conference keynotes, welcome receptions, or dinner presentations that combine exceptional hospitality with inspiring conversation and genuine community impact.
