This is not your standard networking luncheon.
This is an afternoon designed for women who lead — in business, in sport, in community, in life.
Following the success of previous keynote speakers Jelena Dokic, Michelle Payne, and Tess Brouwer, we are proud to welcome one of Australia’s most fearless high-performance athletes and entrepreneurs — Lydia Lassila.
Olympic Gold Medallist. Three-time world record holder. Four-time Olympian.
The first woman in history to land a quad-twisting triple somersault.
But Lydia’s story is about far more than medals.
It’s about ambition, identity, risk, motherhood, entrepreneurship, reinvention — and what it truly takes to lead under pressure when the stakes are high.
Your experience begins in the breathtaking Green Grove at Marnong Estate with premium estate wines, curated canapés and meaningful networking with fellow professionals, founders and emerging leaders.
Guests will then move into the elegant Angliss Room for a beautifully curated two-course seated luncheon, complete with:
• Premium Marnong Estate wines
• Exclusive door prizes
• A curated gift bag for every attendee
Lydia will then take the stage for a powerful and deeply personal keynote exploring:
• High performance and mental resilience
• Courage and calculated risk
• Redefining success beyond a single identity
• Balancing elite ambition with motherhood
• Building business beyond sport
The afternoon concludes with dessert, coffee and connection.
This is a space to:
• Expand your network
• Gain tangible leadership insight
• Be inspired by world-class resilience
• Invest in your personal and professional growth
Whether you’re a founder, executive, entrepreneur, creative, or emerging leader — this event is designed to elevate and energise.
