APOC Gala and Awards Night 2024

Australian Professionals of Colour (APOC) invites you to its Annual Gala and Awards Night 2024, a not-for-profit event, dedicated to celebrating individuals who have steered the conversation of diversity and inclusion in Australian workplaces. 

APOC is an organisation with 2,500 (and growing) community members, and we celebrated our 3rd anniversary in June this year. 

We help our community members maximise their potential through our workshops and connect them with other leaders from diverse backgrounds via our online and in-person events. We also work with organisations to develop culturally intelligent leaders and high-performing diverse teams.

This year, we are hosting our Annual Gala and Awards Night to bring the community corporate leaders, and allies together to celebrate the progress that has been made in uplifting professionals of colour in Australia. 

On the night, you will hear from industry leaders and mentors about the importance of people from different backgrounds and their impact on the Australian economy. We will also host an awards ceremony to recognise and acknowledge individuals contributing to the conversation about cultural inclusion. 

The night will feature:

1. Panel Discussion: Elevating POC Success in Traditional Roles,
2. Awards Ceremony where we will confer two awards to celebrate people and organisations who have gone above and beyond and helped break down barriers for professionals of colour. 
3. Key-Note Address: TBC
4. Immersive cultural Entertainment on the Night focussed on showcasing the culture our community brings to workspaces :
   
5. 3-course sit-down dinner and drinks where you will share a table with like-minded industry leaders
