Waitlist Frenzy for Purpose-Driven Business Advocate & Angel Investor
to Help a New Generation of ‘Dreambuilders’ Down Under
Sydney, AUSTRALIA – 3 July 2025 – In an era where young people are increasingly ditching the traditional 9-to-5 in favour of entrepreneurial ventures, global entrepreneur, angel investor, and social impact powerhouse Simon Squibb is heading to Australia and New Zealand for the first time with his transformative new speaking tour, “What’s Your Dream?” presented by Success Resources.
Covering Melbourne, Sydney, Brisbane, Perth and Auckland, the live tour will take place in November and offer attendees an impactful evening with Simon Squibb learning how to build a purpose-led business based on what they love. Tickets go on sale to the general public from 12pm AEST today, with demand already high, driven by half a million views of Simon’s tour announcement video across social media and an oversubscribed pre-sale waitlist.
The London-based Sunday Times best-selling author of the book, “What’s Your Dream?” has a legion of loyal followers: over 400 million views a month across social media, and almost 7 million followers on TikTok alone. Audiences lap up his viral street videos, where he stops everyday people to ask a simple question: “What’s your dream?” and then helps bring it to life. Whether it’s expert business advice, a burst of social media exposure, or even a financial contribution, Simon finds a way to validate their dream and build momentum.
As the founder of ‘help economy’ platform HelpBnk, plus a newly released app that gives people business advice directly from his AI clone (also called “What’s Your Dream?”), Squibb is on a mission to help 10 million people start their dream business. He says his Australian and New Zealand speaking tour is an extension of that mission, addressing a pressing societal issue.
"The world doesn’t need more people stuck in jobs they hate,” says Squibb.
“It needs more people brave enough to bet on themselves. To chase the dream they’ve buried and build a life they don’t want to escape from. I’m coming to Australia and New Zealand to find those people. People who have a dream. A purpose bigger than themselves. I'm not just a motivational speaker. I'm bringing the tools to actually make those changes."
A recent survey by MYOB revealed that 75% of Gen Z Australians (aged 18–24) are considering starting their own business. Yet only a fraction takes the leap, often due to fears like covering the cost of living or a lack of belief in their abilities. Squibb’s tour aims to close that gap, while invigorating all generations of inspiring entrepreneurs who seek expert direction and no-nonsense strategies for success.
General Manager for Success Resources Australia, Craig Doran, said it was a real privilege to be bringing Simon Squibb to Australia and New Zealand, facilitated in partnership with his agent Leah McIver of Kruger Cowne.
"Simon Squibb’s mission is truly inspiring, and he has already made a global impact, transforming lives through accessible entrepreneurship. This is a rare opportunity to learn from someone who's truly walking the walk. The biggest mistake someone can make is not trying at all, so for Aussies and Kiwis ready to dream bigger, build bolder, and take action, they simply must attend this event,’ said Doran.
The evening format for “What’s Your Dream?” will feature a keynote from Simon Squibb, offering step-by-step guidance on how to turn your dream into a reality, followed by an interactive Q&A session. With a variety of ticketing options available, guests can also choose to join Simon for an intimate roundtable session, taking place in each city at a premium restaurant, as a unique chance to engage in deeper conversation in a small-group setting.
So, for students, side hustlers, startup founders, stalled business owners or anyone stuck in a job that doesn’t light them up, this event—part of a viral movement—is about to make their dreams come true.
