EC Networking Nights are very different to your typical meetup events. We want you to have fun, have a drink and find others to collaborate with. We open up our events to all entrepreneur minded people whether you are working a job currently, building a business or are somewhere in between. Come have a chat & a beer with other ambitious individuals aiming to move forward in life. 

What to expect on the night?

This will be a casual space for you to mingle and meet others from our EC, with members from all different business backgrounds & professions. 

Please note: This is going to be a very collaborative night of sharing success tips and ensuring your association in business and life remains strong for the journey ahead. Our only requirement is that you please come with a desire to build connections and not just to pitch or sell to anyone in the group. Connect in person and pitch later if appropriate. 

Agenda

6:30pm – Kick off

7:30pm – Host introductions & welcomes

7:45pm –  Networking continues ……

The First time we booked Steve Sammartino, it took us 2 years. This time it took 4 years to rebook him, and with good reason. Steve is one of Australia’s most respected futurists, speakers and business technologists who is doing a Q&A on his latest book, The Lessons School Forgot. 

The days of being locked into a single career for life are long gone. It’s time to reinvent yourself, transform your life and work the new economy for everything it’s worth. School was designed to produce capable, compliant factory workers to staff the Industrial Age. Today, we need leaders, visionaries, entrepreneurs and risk-takers. The Digital Age demands creativity and leadership from a population trained to “follow” from a young age. The Lessons School Forgot shows you how to shift your mindset and develop the skills you need to take charge of your future.

Sign up to download the first chapter at http://www.thelessonsschoolforgot.com/.

You can order the book or buy a signed copy on the night.
