Coffee Meet up | God-led Business Owners & Creatives

Coffee Meet up | God-led Business Owners & Creatives

Tue, Sep 1, 10:00 PM
From God-led Entrepenuers, Business Owners & Creatives |Melbourne

God‑Led Business Owners, Entrepreneurs & Creatives is a gathering for those building with purpose — founders, makers, creatives, and business owners who are committed to walking with Jesus as they create, innovate, and lead. This meet‑up is a space to support one another, share enriching conversations, and navigate the worldliness, pressures, and complexities of the industries we’re in. This community exists as an opportunity to support one another, and not feel isolated in the unique journey that is entrepreneurship, owning a business or pursuing creative endeavours. We get together to talk about the real stuff — the challenges, the wins, the spiritual battles, the opportunities, and the calling behind the work. If you’ve been craving conversations with other big thinkers, dreamers, and action‑takers who love God and are building boldly, this is your space. Given this will be our first meet up, we will structure with both casual networking, and also have a few questions to get the conversation flowing. Look forward to meeting you!

'GENESIS' - The Generative AI Filmmaker's Networking Event

From Movie Mutuals

**Welcome to 'GENESIS' - The Generative AI Filmmaking Networking Event!** ***THIS MAY BE A LIMITED EVENT - PLEASE MAKE SURE TO RSVP.*** This group is for individuals interested in exploring the intersection of generative AI technology and movie making. Whether you're a filmmaker eager to discuss movie production, a technician looking to collaborate, or simply wishing to learn more and discuss AI in film, this group is for you! Join us at the Emporium food court (located behind Grill’d Burger Restaurant in the CBD, not near Melbourne Station) to discuss AI technologies, workflows, productions, AI ethics, government responsibility and more. After 7pm, we continue the evening with Happy Hour drinks at a nearby bar and a chance to grab dinner together. Feel free to bring friends interested in AI filmmaking; it’s a great way to introduce new faces to our expanding network. RSVP to help us gauge attendance and become part of a growing network of film professionals and enthusiasts. Though the event begins in the afternoon, the relationships you build here can last well into the night and beyond. At 7 PM, we move to The Carlton Club, a five-minute walk away, where we continue networking in a more formal rooftop setting over drinks and food. This change of venue offers an ideal environment to keep conversations flowing. We want to foster a supportive network for creativity, film and television production, and collaboration between the world of cinema and AI. Connect with like-minded individuals and explore the exciting world of generative AI filmmaking together at GENESIS.
