The Christmas Opportunity Exchange
Give a connection.
Find an opportunity.
Sometimes the person you need to meet is one conversation away. And sometimes, the most valuable connection you make is one that helps someone else.
Our Christmas Opportunity Exchange is a fun, facilitated networking activity designed to help you make meaningful connections.
Everyone will be encouraged to share something they can offer and something they’re looking for. You never know who might have exactly the introduction, expertise or opportunity you need.
What can you offer?
A skill, service, resource, introduction or opportunity that could help another organisation or business.
What are you looking for?
A potential customer, business connection, partnership, referral, supplier, sponsor or opportunity to help achieve your goals.
A morning worth making time for
Good people. Fresh possibilities.
A little Christmas cheer.
Find ways to work together
Explore potential partnerships, referrals, customers and practical ways to support one another in the year ahead.
Share a festive morning tea
Relax, enjoy a conversation and recognise the contribution our local NFPs and businesses have made throughout 2026.
