EO Melbourne Chapter News

November 2024

Hi ,


As we approach the end of 2024, we have some fantastic events lined up to keep us connected and energised.


On 14 November, we’re hosting a Speed Networking Event—a great opportunity to meet like-minded members in quick, meaningful conversations. You never know where these connections might lead!


Are you under 35 (or young at heart)? Then the upcoming EO Melbourne Under 35s Event is for you! Join us this Thursday, 7 November, from 5:30 pm to 7:30 pm at Tetto Di Carolina in South Yarra. Enjoy drinks and nibbles at this casual gathering—the perfect opportunity to unwind and meet new faces. RSVP to Under 35s champion, Ben Simpson (ben@collectiveshift.com.au) if you’d like to come along.


On 20 November, join us for An Exploration into the Wonderful World of Scottish Whisky. Whether you’re a whisky enthusiast or simply curious, this unique evening promises relaxation and good company.


Then, on 28 November, we’re excited to present Learnings & Reflections: The Journey of Building Blinkist, followed by our Annual General Meeting. Gain valuable insights from Blinkist’s journey and join us as we reflect on the year and look forward.


Finally, be sure to save the date for our Christmas Long Lunch on 13 December. It’s the perfect way to celebrate the year and connect with fellow members as we wrap up 2024.


These events are designed to enhance your experience and strengthen our EO community. I hope to see you at one or all of them!





Cheers,

Costa Vasili

President (FY 2024/2025)
