Women's nexus is a women's networking group that aims to link business and professional women.  

 

Meetings are held on the last Wednesday of every second month.  Our members are from a diverse range of backgrounds and are lawyers, financial consultants, barristers, marketing managers, real estate agents, business owners including in fashion, filmmakers,  artists and photographers.

 

Women's nexus is not just about cross referrals, though it is about that too. Unlike some networking groups where that is the sole focus women’s nexus is wider than that.  

 

We also want women's nexus to be inspirational, hence as a point of difference at each meeting there will be a female speaker.

 

We want it to be everyone's bi-monthly booster for their career with support, inspirational speakers, and cross referrals.

 

Women's Nexus has received media attention and in an article published in Mamamia on 16 June 2016, co-founder Zoë Durand said of the group:

 

"Currently women’s networking groups seem to be a dime a dozen out there. So why start yet another one? My hope for the group was that it would not just be about cross referrals but rather it would be “career therapy” and inspirational. My co-founder and I committed to sourcing inspirational speakers who would be willing to talk about the real stuff of how they built their career.

 

We wanted to create an informal, supportive and authentic space where women can come together and vent, talk, laugh and network over some wine and cheese.  Somehow thanks to the wonderful women that came, this is the exact environment that was created.

 

Only one meeting in and I am already certain I have found that sense of community, where we can each be the cheer leader for each other’s career."
