What to expect?
But it's more than breakfast and connections. You'll join small table groups to work through themed prompts, sharing stories, experiences, wins and lessons learned. Each breakfast focuses on a new topic for SMEs to explore together.
Our quarterly SME Breakfasts provide a platform for business leaders to connect with one another and engage in conversations that foster mutual learning. These sessions feature guest speakers and innovative content aimed at equipping you with new tools and ideas to apply within your own business.

What participants say about the SME breakfasts?
Hear from founders and operators of small and medium sized businesses in Canberra about the value they get from our SME focused events.

I attended the SME breakfast event this morning and just wanted to share how much I appreciated the experience. It was my first time attending, and I was a little nervous going in — but the event size felt just right, and the structure made it really approachable. The balance of casual mingling, group work, and more relaxed conversation over a healthy breakfast worked really well. I also noticed and appreciated the thoughtful mix of attendees. There was a good balance between industry partners and SME owners or representatives. It created a space where I could hear about the real challenges others are facing, while also gaining practical advice and insights from those with broader industry experience. Thanks again for putting together such a meaningful event. I’ll definitely be looking out for the next one!
