CBD Women in Business Network | 13 Nov Spring Drinks & Networking
CBD Women in Business Network Festive Evening Drinks
This evening event looks to take advantage of the warmer spring weather and the inspiring surroundings of the CUPRA City Garage for an evening of relaxed networking and meaningful connection.
The aim is to bring together women in business, business owners and aspiring leaders - their teams and business colleagues to meet and network.
During the evening we'll reflect on some of the program content presented this year including:
- IWD25: Putting the Spotlight on How Australian women in business are working to turn promises into action
- Health, Wellness & Leadership
- Still Worried About the Imposter Syndrome
- Creating Meaningful Connections
We'll also ask for your input on how the Women in Business Network program might evolve to in 2026 to suit evolving topics and trends of interest. The Chamber values your input. And getting your feedback is something we have done in the past and has significantly influenced the shape of the program.
This group comprises business owners, senior women in businesses, leaders and aspiring leaders who want to learn, share and grow both personally and professionally.
It has had tremendous support from BSI Learning which has provided access to part-funded diploma and advanced diploma training to members and their teams; as well as de Lorenzo Hair & Skin Science which provides access to a complete range of salon quality hair & skincare products.
And while this network is focused on making meaningful connections among women. We also welcome men to participate and add to productive discussions.
