Outline/Structure of the Case Study

30 min talk

Learning Outcome

Working with your life-partner, or even with a close friend, involves taking a terrible risk. If your business partnership has irreconcilable differences, it just might take a healthy relationship down with it. We'll share our story, and what we've learnt about blending work and home life, and hopefully save some marriages and businesses from learning all this stuff the hard way.

Target Audience

Anyone who is interested in the history of video game development in Brisbane, or in the dynamics of family businesses
