Speed networking will arrive in Perth at Rydges on Thursday, 31st January. Similar in concept to speed dating, speed networking is a great way to quickly introduce your business to a host of potential new clients and partners.

Dominique Pratt, TV presenter for Channel 7's lifestyle show, will be the guest MC to get us warmed up for the night’s activities. Dominique promises a fun and sociable night of making new contacts, along with a possible surprise or two!

If you would like to meet new people and find out what others around town are doing, the event will be a great opportunity to make new connections for your business all while supporting a worthy cause - all proceeds go to the PMH Foundation.

So what exactly is speed networking?

There are several reasons for Perth’s popularity.
