'Deadly in Melbourne' Expo Hosted By Kinaway Chamber of Commerce and City of Melbourne

Kinaway presents a collaboration between City of Melbourne and Kinaway Chamber of Commerce: ‘Deadly in Melbourne: A First Nations Business Expo’

Following on from the huge success of ‘Deadly in Gippsland’, this event is aimed at promoting our First Nations owned businesses that operate within or around Melbourne CBD, with a focus on providing industry exposure. Kinaway have teamed up with the City of Melbourne to utilise Melbourne Town Hall where we invite Kinaway Members as well as Corporate Partners to gather, connect, and have a yarn with old and new faces to create some deadly opportunities.

Date: Monday, 17th July 2023

Time: 9am – 3:30pm 
Location: Melbourne Town Hall

Attendance of the ‘Deadly in Melbourne’ Expo is free of charge for all attendees and will provide great networking opportunities, a unique insight into the Indigenous businesses that operate within your industry, and exposure to often-overlooked sectors.
