Event description

Celebrating Connections: Where Leaders & Changemakers Unite

On Wednesday, 24 September 2025, join us at Easts Leagues Club, Bondi Junction, for Celebrating Connections. It's an evening that brings together leaders, innovators, and community champions from across New South Wales.

This isn’t just another networking night. It’s a first-of-its-kind gathering where people step away from their screens and into the room to share ideas, form partnerships, and celebrate those who are shaping the future of our communities and industries.

Highlights of the evening include:

  • Welcome Address: Mayor Cr Will Nemesh, Mayor of Waverley - sharing his vision on community, collaboration, and the importance of uniting regional and city leaders to tackle shared challenges like housing, jobs, and transport.

  • Keynote: Julian Day - Founder of the Consensus Awards, advisor to global brands like Atlassian and WiseTech, and one of Australia’s most respected voices on innovation and leadership.

  • Special Remarks: John Coudounaris, Economic Development Manager at Waverley Council, offers a practical, evidence-based perspective on how technology and data can create safer streets, stronger local businesses, and more sustainable communities.

  • Panel Discussion hosted by Marina Makhlin (Principal, LJ Hooker Bondi Junction & Vice President, BDCC):

    • Brad Woollett - Founder, definiti (automation & productivity)

    • Anita Kolni - Founder, Ocean Lovers Festival (sustainability & innovation)

    • Astrid Hocking - Chairperson, Hearts & Hands Community Development, NSW Senior Australian of the Year Finalist 2022, NSW Woman of the Year 2025

Together, they’ll explore how community, collaboration, and innovation can unite regional and city leaders to drive progress and create opportunities for all.

This is your chance to connect with some of NSW’s most inspiring people — from business leaders to grassroots changemakers — and be part of an evening that could spark the next big idea, partnership, or movement.
