June Newsletter

Over the next few months, we will be hosting smaller state-based networking events. These events are informal and designed to get members, and their guests, together in a face to face environment to learn a little and talk with others in the industry. Members are invited to attend our Sydney networking events on 16 June - find the details here. Keep an eye out on our website for upcoming Brisbane and Adelaide events.

Due to the uncertainty of people being able to attend interstate events, we have decided to cancel our 2021 Conference. We look forward to hosting our Annual Conference again soon when travelling interstate is a little easier.
