Join us for the Tech with Purpose Melbourne Christmas Social - casual end-of-year networking drinks with the community.
Since launching in May, Tech with Purpose Melbourne has brought together engineers, data and IT professionals, project managers, founders and people from across the for-purpose sector. We’ve hosted a launch night, AI roundtables and a panel on tech transformations, and the community has grown with each one. To close out the year, we’re keeping it simple: no panel, no presentations, just a chance to catch up with people you’ve met at previous events and meet others doing similar work.
Whether you’re building products, shaping strategy, modernising infrastructure, analysing data, or simply exploring what a purpose-driven tech career could look like, this event is designed to connect you with like-minded people and ideas. Event Details Date: Thursday, 26 November 2026 Time: 5:30 PM - 7:30 PM Location: Arbory Bar & Eatery, 1 Flinders Walk, Melbourne VIC 3000 (subject to change weather dependent)
✔️ Casual networking drinks ✔️ Free to register - all welcome
