About

Michael Soro is an example of leadership in the neurodiversity space. Having come from a challenging upbringing and having failed at University, he went on to weaponise his dyslexia and to embrace self taught auto-didactic learning. With a background in horticulture, permaculture, and systems-thinking research, he has developed a unique perspective on the world. Michael is the founder of and creative lead for Native Events, Ireland’s leading sustainable event production company. Over the years, Native Events has grown and now comprises a dynamic team of smart, hard-working and driven individuals working towards environmental sustainability and circular principles in Ireland’s creative industries. As the environmental movement gathers pace, the organisation works with an expanding community of partners in the sector including events, festivals and cultural organisations but also with the wider network of industry suppliers, ensuring a systems-wide transition to sustainability and regeneration.
