About Speaker
With a career spanning diverse sectors over three decades, Lucy Bloom is a business, leadership, and philanthropy powerhouse whose extraordinary accomplishments have had a tangible global impact.
Lucy’s professional journey is a testament to her exceptional leadership, entrepreneurial acumen, and strategic expertise. Over two decades, she steered a boutique advertising agency to prominence, gaining a reputation for innovative thinking and a fearless approach to complex challenges.
Then, as the inaugural CEO and director of a groundbreaking women’s health charity, Lucy
orchestrated a remarkable fundraising campaign raising $7 million in under three years for a
network of hospitals and a midwifery school in Ethiopia. Her hands-on leadership and appetite for innovation were instrumental in advancing healthcare in Ethiopia for generations.
Lucy later took the helm of a Cambodian children’s charity, transforming it into a fundraising powerhouse within a year and transitioning from a traditional orphanage to a community development model.
She’s the founder of a successful world-first education start-up, the author of three books, the host of her podcast show and a contributor to CEO Magazine.
Lucy’s impact extends beyond her professional achievements. She is the first and only Australian to be recognised among the world’s top 30 #socialceos, and she has been honoured with a Kindness Award from the Wake-Up Project. Moreover, Lucy’s outstanding contributions have earned her both speaking and leadership awards, including being a two-time finalist in the Telstra Business Woman of the Year Awards.
Lucy’s exceptional leadership, entrepreneurial acumen, and strategic expertise have been hardwon over three decades of innovation, creativity, and an unwavering commitment to kindness.
