EO Melbourne Chapter News

October 2024

Hi ,


What makes EO Melbourne so special? Simple – it’s our members.


We don’t aspire to be the largest community of entrepreneurs or aim to be ‘elitist.’ What we care about is having great members who help each other reach their full potential.


That’s why creating opportunities for members to meet and connect is so important.


Because you never know how a single connection might transform your life.


With that in mind, we’ve put together some fantastic opportunities for you to connect with fellow members over the next eight weeks.


Whether it’s mastering the art of pizza-making with Johnny Di Francesco, founder of 400 Gradi or exploring fine whiskies with Greg Sanderson at Nick & Nora’s, these events are designed with connection at their core.


We’re also introducing a new event format – Speed Networking. It’s a fast-paced, structured way to meet 10 other members in quick but meaningful conversations where every moment counts.


These events are deliberately kept small and intimate, with just 30-40 members per event. This ensures you have the space and time to truly engage and build meaningful relationships.


And finally, have you secured your ticket to the NEXUS Chapter Retreat in March 2025? Spaces are filling fast, and this retreat promises to be an unforgettable experience you won’t want to miss.


I look forward to seeing you at one of our upcoming events.




Cheers,

Costa Vasili

President (FY 2024/2025)
