📍Brisbane - International Generalist Day Meetup
International Generalist Day 2025 🌍
Imagine you could meet new friends who understood your squiggly background? Well, now you can!
Join Li Tan in Brisbane for International Generalist Day - a global celebration happening simultaneously across cities worldwide on September 3rd, 2025.
This year we have events across 30+ countries and 80+ locations!
Li is hosting a fantastic evening of dinner, drinks and delightfully random skill sharing! Get ready for good food, interactive games, and a room full of awesome multi-hyphenated folks ready to swap everything from life hacks to wonderfully useless but useful tricks.
What is a generalist? Professionals who apply their skills across multiple domains, connect disparate ideas, or serve as "translators" between different teams and disciplines. If you've ever felt your career doesn't fit in a single box, this celebration is for you.
What to expect:
Connect with fellow generalists in your city
Celebrate the power of diverse skillsets and squiggly careers
Be part of a global movement happening the same day worldwide
Dinner & drinks in a relaxed, welcoming atmosphere
Simple skills show & tell - share your favorite life hacks and tricks
Interactive dinner games designed for laughs and connections
Making genuine friends and swapping ideas with curious minds
More details:
Format: Dinner gathering with skill sharing and interactive games
Transport: Best reached by public transport - follow the fairy lights when you arrive!
Food & drinks: Pay-your-own meals and drinks
What to prep: A simple skill to share - anything goes! Think shoelace-tying speed tricks, perfect paper planes, fitted sheet folding without swearing, or any delightfully useful life hack
Your host Li is a social impact project juggler, mental health advocate, DJ, weird-skill collector by passion and always trying new things. Her favorite part about being a generalist? "I get to be anything I want, try all the things, dive into new stuff, and just live life without feeling stuck. Why settle for one hat when you can wear all of them?"
As Li shares: "I'm excited to meet other generalists and share our journey and where we're at :) but honestly, I'm also keen to see what random skills everyone's bringing. I need more fun little tricks in my life!"
