Blue Monday Live is a new one-day conference designed to turn what is called the most depressing day of the year into the most inspiring. The event features 22 speakers with remarkable track records and experiences to share, with the aim of inspiring attendees to achieve their goals for social good in 2019. There is an Oscar winner, a world record holder, iconic brands, creative leaders and successful entrepreneurs. The event is designed for charities, social enterprises, individuals, CSR teams, good causes and businesses who want to create positive social change. "Blue Monday" was chosen as the ideal day for the event because it, the third Monday in January, is popularly (and erroneously) referred to as the most depressing day of the year. Event founder Chris Ward thinks that makes it the most appropriate day to hold a conference of inspirational speakers to help spur on good causes to achieve even more positive change in the coming year. Ward runs Blue Dot World Ltd, a not-for-profit business.
