The Circle – First Nations Entrepreneur Hub – Back of the Napkin Lunch – Port Pirie

May 22 @ 12:00 pm - 2:00 pm
Free

Join us for a Back of the Napkin Lunch co‑hosted by The Circle — South Australia’s leading First Nations Entrepreneur Hub — alongside Workforce BluePrint and Sea to Valley Startups, bringing together businesses, councils and partners from across regional South Australia.

Why Attend?
Local councils play a critical role in procurement, partnerships and regional development. This event puts businesses at the centre of the conversation, offering a rare opportunity to:

  • Hear directly from South Australian local councils
  • Understand how councils, government agencies and major projects engage with suppliers
  • Learn practical pathways to procurement, collaboration and long‑term contracts
  • Build trusted relationships before opportunities are announced publicly

The discussions will be grounded in real business opportunities.

What You’ll Experience

  • Reverse pitches from councils and partners on upcoming opportunities
  • Success stories from First Nations and local businesses who have entered government or major supply chains
  • Honest insights into barriers, lessons learned and how to navigate them
  • Open networking with businesses, councils and ecosystem partners
  • Practical next steps you can apply immediately

You’ll leave with new contacts, clearer direction and confidence that you were in the room early.

MC’d by Wendy Perry, MD @ Workforce BluePrint with Reverse Pitches, First Nations Enterprises and Business Opportunities for All – everyone is welcome with lunch provided.
