Coastal Connect
A slow evening around a long table — founders, operators and women between chapters. No pitches. One prompt, good food, and introductions that stick.
From Melbourne breakfasts to Geelong mentor evenings, Surf Coast After 5s and Ballarat coffee mornings — find the room where you're meant to be, browse by region, or put your hand up for an introduction.
Real, open women's networking events — Melbourne, Geelong, Surf Coast, Ballarat and regional. Filter by suburb or date. Past one-offs drop off automatically.
Every listing is run independently — we just make them easy to find. Filter by what you're after. (Ported from the live site; more groups welcome via the form below.)
Women's Networking Victoria grew from a simple habit: noticing who should know who, and making the introduction. Kate lives on the Surf Coast and spends her time in real rooms — breakfasts, after-fives, quiet coffees — where trust is built face to face.
This directory and calendar exist so more Victorian women can find those rooms. When you're looking for a particular kind of connection, you can also put your hand up — no hard sell, just a soft signal that you'd like to be introduced.
