Members Connect Virtual Meetup – ‘Finding your people’

Connect with Franklin Women members and strengthen your professional network in this free, 50-minute members only event.  

If you are looking to build your professional network, be sure to join our first virtual Members Connect meet up where you will hear from our founder – Dr Melina Georgousakis – on how networks have influenced her career and have the opportunity to connect with fellow Franklin Women members in an intimate and supported way.

We will guide the event and introduce conversation starters to take the ‘work’ out of networking and help the connections flow smoothly. So you get to make meaningful connections with women in diverse roles and industries across the health and medical research ecosystem – all from the comfort of your computer.

By the end of the 50-minute meetup, you’ll have met some wonderful Franklin Women members who might become your collaborators, friends and offer all forms of support to help you achieve your career goals.

Here’s what you can look forward to:

• Connecting with fellow FW members working in diverse roles and fields across the health and medical research ecosystem
• Thoughtful icebreaker activities to help you kick off those connections on the right foot
• The opportunity to expand and strengthen your network
• An intimate, welcoming and safe online space where you’ll feel heard and understood.

Places are strictly limited to protect our interactive, intimate and inclusive environment – and keep the FW sparkle flowing! If you would like to come along, please RSVP under the ‘Tickets’ section below.

About the Members Connect meet up series

Over the years we have built an amazing community of women who have joined Franklin Women as members, collectively investing in our social enterprise and its mission. What is so special about our members is that they represent diverse roles, disciplines, organisations, and career levels from across the health and medical research ecosystem – where else can you find this amazing mix of experience and expertise?

Our new Members Connect event series aims to bring together FW members to strengthen their networks and provide opportunities to engage with organisations and individuals who are driving sector trends and leading innovative programs of work.

We know it’s not always easy (or possible!) to attend in-person Franklin Women events due to work schedules, caring responsibilities, travel time, or because crowded event spaces aren’t for you. That’s why our Members Connect events will be hosted across Sydney, Canberra and virtually at different days and times throughout the year – and they are FREE.

We hope you can join us at one soon!
