Workshops, mixers, summits & clinics

Where the work happens.

In a room. Off a screen. With people.

Our events are how the Growth Hub shows up in the neighbourhood — practical workshops, founder mixers, free clinics, and an annual summit. All in Canberra, mostly free, always inclusive.

Six voices.
One room at a time.

Testimonials from attendees of recent events. No promo. No marketing speak.

Walked in with a half-built website and walked out with the next three things to fix. Every other workshop I've been to is selling something — this one wasn't.

PSPriya SubramaniamFounder · Saffron BakeryDigital Marketing Day

I'd never been in a room with twenty other migrant founders before. Everyone got it. I didn't have to explain.

HAHossein A.Owner · Hossein's Persian KitchenMigrant Founders Mixer

Showed up to office hours with a grant draft that wasn't going anywhere. Left with a re-scoped application that got funded six weeks later.

TWTara WhittakerDirector · NorthLine CareGrants Office Hours

Best two hours of CPD I've done all year. I'm a sparky, I don't usually rate workshops — this one I'd send my apprentices to.

DPDean P.Sole-trader · Capital SparksTradie Tax Time

It's the quiet catch-up area that did it for me. I'm autistic — most networking is exhausting. They thought about it.

EMErin McleanFounder · Quiet Hour StudioDigital Marketing Day

Genuinely the only event where I've ever been introduced to a customer in the same hour I met them. Not the keynote — the side conversation.

JKJoseph K.Co-founder · Brindabella BuildFounders Yarn

Run an event with us.

We co-host with partners every month — workshops, panels, clinics, mixers. If you've got an audience that needs the room, or a session you've been meaning to teach, let's talk.

What we co-host best

  • Practical, hands-on workshops (max 2 hours)
  • Founder mixers with structure — not just drinks
  • Drop-in clinics on specific topics (grants, AI, tax, cyber)
  • Annual or seasonal summits with multiple tracks
  • Community circles for under-served founder groups

Not a form funnel. Not a "discovery call". Just a real message to a real person in Canberra who'll read it, think about it, and reply.
