The Conversation Series - Women Actuaries Connect+

Melbourne

Garden State Hotel, 101 Flinders Lane, MELBOURNE, VIC 3000, Australia

4 CPD Points (In-Person Registration attendance)

Aug 20 2026 6:00PM - Aug 20 2026 8:00PM

Your skills got you here. Relationships open the doors you didn't know existed. Nobody teaches you how to build them, and in a world where the work speaks for itself, it can feel beside the point - until it isn't. We've built the evening, so you actually meet people. Expect good questions, unexpected answers, and a room full of people who get what you do.

Our host for the evening: Avanti Patki, Senior Product Actuary at PPS Mutual, who's spent over a decade in life insurance and wealth management.

Come for the nibbles and drinks. Stay for the conversations that will help you build your career networks.

Thursday, 20 August 2026
