...not just for Canadians!
Network Canada is a fun professional networking group based in Sydney, Australia that's open to everyone, not just Canadians. From amazing events to travel advice around Australasia, Network Canada is here to help!
Network Canada began in 2002 as a professionally-minded social network for Canadian expats living in Sydney with events called “Canada Parties”. Not much has changed except that the events now attract a lot of Australians as well as representation from many other countries such as New Zealand, USA, Italy, Spain, South Africa, Sweden, France, etc, etc. In fact, the parties have become so popular that companies have started sponsoring them. There are usually 5 to 7 events per year with anywhere from 150 to 3,000 people showing up depending on the occasion! The goal of Network Canada is very simple: friendly people meeting other friendly people. You’re guaranteed to be introduced to new people of all backgrounds and professions and have fun at the same time.
In addition to fun events, Network Canada also tries to help everyone settle into life in Sydney by providing guidance/tips on visas, immigration, travel, insurance, mortgages, etc. We don't always have all the answers but it's worth giving us a try.
Joining Network Canada is free! Just get on the mailing list by contacting us with your email address.
Or join us on Facebook which is where you can also see photos of past events!
A new website but the same philosophy
Even though Network Canada has been around since 2002, this is its first website. As a grassroots group of largely professional people who want to have fun and network, it has been relatively easy to communicate to everyone via email. However, over the past couple of years both the database and number of events have grown. The website should allow us to communicate more frequently and less intrusively as well as provide additional services. And no matter what, we'll still conitnue our grassroots approach to building a great network of people through quality events.
