She is also a passionate yoga teacher, visual artist, and champion long-distance runner, having won the 2020 Ross Marathon in a female course record time of 2:59:31.

An open book about her experience, but even more passionate about preventing this from happening to other children, Grace speaks from the heart and will have her audience simultaneously inspired and in tears.

Dylan Alcott OAM

FILEX VIRTUAL SERIES KEYNOTE SPEAKER

Dylan Alcott OAM, a dual sport athlete, has represented Australia on the international stage in wheelchair basketball and wheelchair tennis since the age of 13. In 2008, at the age of 17, Dylan was a main contributor in the Australian wheelchair basketball teams (‘The Rollers’) gold medal victory at the 2008 Paralympic games in Beijing, becoming the youngest ever wheelchair basketball gold medallist in history.

Dylan was born with a rare type of tumour wrapped around his spinal cord. After nearly 20 operations and spending the majority of the first three years of his life in hospital, Dylan’s health started to take a turn for the better, and through sheer determination and hard work he has been become one of Australia’s best and most recognised Paralympians. After winning Paralympic Gold in 2008, Dylan was inducted as a member of the Order of Australia in 2009 at the age of 18. From there, Dylan and the Rollers followed up their win in Beijing with victory at the 2010 FIBA World Championships, becoming the first Australian basketball team to ever win the title. In 2012, he returned from the London Paralympic Games with a silver medal.

In 2014, Alcott returned to wheelchair tennis, and by the end of 2015, he was ranked number 1 after winning eight titles including two grand slam singles titles. He was named the 2016 Australian Paralympian of the Year due to his outstanding achievements. Alcott has established the Dylan Alcott Foundation “with the core purpose of helping young Australians with disabilities gain self-esteem and respect through sport and study”. He also finished studying at the University of Melbourne with a Commerce degree and has an autobiography titled Able: gold medals, grand slams and smashing glass ceilings.

In addition, Dylan has had his own radio programs, hosted television programs and is a popular tennis commentator. Dylan’s true passion is his work as a motivational speaker and is continually trying to change the way people with disabilities are perceived in the wider community. He works with multiple charities and brings disability awareness to schools.

Most recently, Dylan Alcott became a record 14-time Grand Slam singles champion and won his second Wimbledon crown, as well as winning his sixth consecutive Australian Open title in 2020. He is on track to win the coveted Golden Slam at the Paralympics this year.


Dylan will be presenting the Keynote Address at the commencement of the Fitness Australia Awards on Day 3.

Ben Alcott

FILEX VIRTUAL SERIES SPEAKER

Ben Alcott is the managing director of Australian production agency Damn Good Productions, and has been working in the
television and event production industries for over 30 years.

Ben’s interest in television began when working as a child actor, and at the age of 12 he started his own video production
company. 4 years later he started with Network Ten in Sydney, and 6 months after that began working with some of the world’s
biggest bands (Aerosmith, INXS, Billy Joel, Neil Diamond just to name a few).

In 2001 whilst touring with Robbie Williams, Ben was asked to work with upcoming chef Jamie Oliver, and this began 20 years of working with the world’s biggest chefs on their television and touring projects.

Today, Damn Good Productions has offices in Australia, UK, and the USA and produces projects for some of the world’s biggest
entertainment and corporate organisations.

Ben’s company was one of the first in Australia to produce a live stream, way back in 1998. Since then he has overseen tens of
thousands of live streams, including many high profile events. He has extensive experience in working with clients to get on-line, and knows the various platforms and techniques that work best.

Unfortunately his experience with fitness hasn’t been so illustrious. His first foray into attending a gym resulted in him collapsing off a treadmill after only 3 minutes – since then, a litany of highly paid trainers have failed to get him drinking water, or stop drinking milkshakes. If he can show you how to get yourselves online during the Coronavirus pandemic, maybe you can show him how to stop being so lazy during lockdown.

Ben will be presenting on Day 3: The Future of Fitness: Business Tech & Data.

Ginny Stevens

FILEX VIRTUAL SERIES SPEAKER

Ginny grew up on a farm in Tasmania and has always been passionate about agriculture, community and staying active. She combined these two loves when founding Active Farmers in 2015. Concerned about the level of depression and suicide in rural communities, she developed a program for farmers and other community members to improve their physical and mental health and wellbeing. Through exercise and interaction, participants become more aware of their health and develop a greater sense of community and resilience. In January 2018 she made the decision to leave her eight-year Agribusiness banking career and, with the support of Delta Agribusiness, expand Active Farmers so that as many country towns in regional areas throughout Australia can have access to the service as possible. Today Active Farmers exists in over 45 small farming communities across the country and offers a wide range of community driven events such as fun runs & Games, Ginny’s philosophy is that the more people who understand the connection between being physically fit and well connected within their community, and being mentally strong, the better! Ultimately our farming communities are responsible for feeding and clothing the country and Ginny believes the health and wellbeing of these people really matters. Now settled in Mangoplah, southern NSW on her husband Andrew’s family farm, with 3 children – twins Isabella and Henry, and Will, a horse and a black Labrador, Ginny couldn’t be happier with life in the country.

Nuts for Life is Australia’s voice for the vital role nuts play in good health and nutrition.

They help busy health professionals stay up-to-date on evidence-based news and research on nuts, sharing why eating a handful (or 30g) of nuts every day is essential to the health of all Australians.

Regular nut consumption offers major health benefits, being linked with reduced all-cause mortality, and a lower risk of dying from heart disease and cancer – which claim the lives of too many Australians. And decades of research shows eating nuts is not linked with weight gain.

Nuts for Life is funded by the Australian nut industry and the Australian Government, through Hort Innovation Australia’s ‘Hort Frontiers Healthy Food Fund’.

For over 40 years we have been the benchmark for speedballs and punching bags for competitions and gyms around the world. We are positioned at the top of the market for quality and performance and our products are widely used in gyms around Australia and very affordable!

This project has been funded by Hort Innovation, using the avocado research and development levy and contributions from the Australian Government. Hort Innovation is the grower owned, not-for-profit research and development corporation for Australian horticulture.

Ikigai imports is inspired out of finding products that enhanced the training outcomes of our original core business. To rehabilitate clients in our Allied Health business we had to think beyond the musculoskeletal system and think 3 dimensionally to provide comprehensive assessment and training. The break thru came when applying rehabilitation methodology to everyday Pilates and Fitness training and the development of our Adaptive Training Model.

We sell world class products that are unique and service the Rehabilitation, Athletic, Fitness and Pilates markets. Our products are rooted in Neurological, Cardiovascular and Musculoskeletal physiology to provide optimal assessment, training, fitness and rehabilitation solutions.

The product range provides end to end assessment and training solutions to find your clients limitations and formulate precise training advice. These solutions include

  • Assessment of maximum Vo2
  • Nutrition assessment and objective prescription
  • HRV/EEG (Heart Rate Variability/Electroencephalography),
  • Respiration assessment and training
  • Aerobic/Anaerobic Thresholds
  • Fat/carbohydrate ratios and metabolic profiling
  • Neurocognitive, Sensorimotor and Proprioceptive training
  • Neuroplasticity training
  • Weight Training

Ikigai Imports can provide customised analysis of your Fitness or Rehabilitation facility. We offer a full facility design and set up service. Ongoing service and maintenance are available.

OneMusic Australia issues licenses to play the vast majority of the many millions of songs heard on radio, TV, music-streaming services as well as music that is bought online or bought from a retailer. Licence fees produce royalty income which are paid out direct to music creators, here and around the world. The same system of issuing licences to use music in a business exists in almost every country around the world. Unlike most other countries in the world, licensing music use in a business in Australia is a one step, not a two-step process. OneMusic issues licences on behalf of songwriters and composers (who belong to membership body APRA AMCOS) and recording artists and record labels (through PPCA).
