SAVE THE DATE

As announced at our International Women’s Day Power of Her event, we are excited to launch our first Pacific Business Networks: Quarterly Exchange & Activation.

This is not just networking.

This is a curated space — bringing together Pacific business owners & entrepreneurs, professionals, and leaders — with intention to connect across services, suppliers, and opportunities.

An evening of exchange — ideas, knowledge, and connections.

An evening of activation — turning conversations into real pathways for collaboration, business, and growth.

It’s time we know who is out there — across our businesses, professions, services, and leadership spaces. From entrepreneurs and service providers to influencers, emerging leaders, and our next generation — this is a space to connect, be seen, and be part of something meaningful.

If you are looking to connect with the right people, explore opportunities, or position your business and services within a purpose-driven space — this is for you.

Thursday 30 July
5:30pm to 9:00pm
Melbourne

Stay tuned. More details will unfold over the coming months..

Through the lens...

A warm fa’afetai to Gracie of Fiafia Art Photography for capturing moments from our Pacific Business Networks International Women’s Power of Her 2026 event.

Photographs have a special way of holding the spirit of a gathering — the smiles, the conversations, and the atmosphere that fills the room. You managed to do that every time!

It’s always a gift to look back through these images and be reminded of the stories and connections shared throughout the afternoon.

Fa’afetai tele lava, Fakaue Lahi mahaki Gracie, for helping preserve these memories through your photography.

Acknowledging our MC, Tamm 🤍

A warm thank you to Tamm for guiding our International Women’s Day Power of Her event with such confidence, humour and presence.

Throughout the afternoon, Tamm carried the program with ease — keeping the room engaged, bringing moments of lightness with her humour, and helping create a welcoming atmosphere for everyone in attendance. A natural super talent this young woman is who made our day even more special.

As a proud Niue woman, Tamm also brought a beautiful cultural connection to the day. Closing the program with a Niue song was a particularly moving moment, leaving the room with a sense of reflection and pride that many of us will remember.

Fa’afetai tele lava and fakaue lahi, Tamm, for the energy, warmth and spirit you brought to the occasion.

A heartfelt thank you to our Beautiful & Inspiring Powerhouse Women panelists!

We are grateful to these Amazing women who shared their voices, experiences and insights during our panel talanoa at our International Women’s Day: Power of Her 2026.

Together, this group reflects the richness and diversity of our Pacific women — across cultures, backgrounds and industries. Each of our panelists brought thoughtful perspectives from business, entrepreneurship, arts and culture, government, diplomacy and the creative industries, creating a conversation that was both powerful and deeply meaningful.

At Pacific Business Networks, we believe strongly in the importance of working collectively and inclusively, and in continuing to create the spaces where Pacific women can share their stories, support one another and grow together but also in the spaces that truly reflect the Value we Deserve!

Fa’afetai tele lava to each of you for your wisdom, openness and the inspiration you brought to the day. It was truly an honour to have you as part of this special gathering.

A special thank you to our wonderful Moderator, Jade!

A heartfelt thank you to Jade for guiding our panel talanoa so beautifully at our International Women’s Day celebration.

Jade was seamless in the way she wove the talanoa together, thoughtfully drawing out the voices, experiences and reflections of each of our panelists with such care. It created a space where the conversation flowed naturally and where the stories of our Pacific women could truly be heard.

As a proud Māori woman, Jade brought not only her professional expertise through her work with Museums Victoria, but also a deep cultural understanding of storytelling, dialogue and connection. This added a special depth to the conversation and showed clearly why she was the perfect choice to lead our talanoa.

Fa’afetai tele lava, Jade, for the care, wisdom and warmth you brought to this important discussion. We are grateful you were part of such a meaningful day.
