Show Info: 2.23am interviews 30 global entrepreneurs and business leaders who are making the world better through business, starting with the question, "What Wakes them at 2.23am?" Each year for 3 years we re-interview the same people, exploring the unfolding story of their 2.23am moments.
In 2006 Dr Martin gave a fireside chat to the Arlington Institute in Washington DC about the sequence of events that, if viewed objectively, could only lead to what we now know as the Global Financial Crisis. Dr Christine McDougall wanted to recreate this Fireside chat 10 years later, specifically looking at the coming collapse of 2017, and what communities can do to build a more resilience local economy. We commence with history, then move to the present, then consider what Australia can do as a Nation and what local communities can do. This is Part 1. Part 2 is a Q@A.
