Business Builders August Networking Drinks
Event description
Business Builders Networking Drinks is dedicated to helping current and aspiring business leaders grow their networks and develop meaningful business relationships.
We feature engaging speakers at most events, but always leave plenty of time to connect, share a drink, and build real relationships in the room.
If you're free to join us, we'd love to see you there.
Having the Courage to Make it Work — or Call it
In August, we’re joined by Oliver Brown, CEO of The Big Easy Group, and the creative mind behind some of Adelaide’s most memorable venues, including NOLA, La Louisiane, Anchovy Bandit and the newly launched Tarantino’s.
He brings a rare mix of creative ambition and clear judgement, knowing when to make the hard calls, when to hold steady, and when to move on.
This won’t be a glossy story of hospitality wins. It’ll be a grounded, honest conversation about what it really takes to create something original, the courage it takes to step in and make sure things work, and how to know when it's time to let go.
We’ll explore how Oliver balances instinct with strategy, why reinvention is built into his process, and what it looks like to keep building without losing your edge.
If you’ve ever faced a moment where continuing felt safer than changing, this is a conversation you won’t want to miss.
What is Business Builders Like?
At Business Builders, we value real stories from people who’ve done the hard yards.
In this episode, we take you inside one of our recent live events, recorded live at Ambra Spirits, where long-time business owner Cameron Johnston shared his hard-earned lessons from 30 years of building and leading businesses.
You’ll learn:
✅ Why leadership means making the hard calls — even when you don’t feel ready
✅ How to navigate cash flow crunches, team challenges, and turning points
✅ The value of backing yourself before you feel confident
✅ How to let go of control and build something bigger than you
