SA Insights Explores Turning Purpose into Real-World Impact

What does it take to turn purpose into real-world impact, across healthcare, technology, and society? Join MTPConnect SA Director Dana Bell for a fireside chat and networking evening with special guests Dr Samantha Pillay and Harry Carpenter, two purpose-driven leaders redefining what it means to innovate in health.

As founders of Continence Matters and Corcillum, Samantha and Harry are harnessing the power of artificial intelligence in very different ways — from patient empowerment and education to unlocking new frontiers in health technology and sustainability.

Both are award-winning changemakers, deeply committed to improving lives through their work. Their journeys span clinical practice, entrepreneurship, storytelling, and global impact — united by a shared belief in using innovation as a force for good.

In this session, we’ll explore:

How to align purpose with scalable, meaningful impact
The role of AI in shaping the future of healthcare and human outcomes
Storytelling as a tool for influence, empowerment, and change
Building ventures that are not only successful, but sustainable and values-led

This is a conversation for anyone interested in the intersection of health, technology, and purpose — and the leaders bold enough to shape what comes next.

Panellists include:

Dr Samantha Pillay, Founder Continence Matters
Harry Carpenter, Founder Corcillum

When: Thursday 21 May, 5:30pm-7:30pm

Where: Adelaide Health and Medical Sciences building – The University of Adelaide
