ABOUT FRESH
Where Business Networking is Far from Bland
Fresh Networking is a professional business networking group focused on building connections, fostering relationships, and expanding networks. We believe that when people get to know, like, and trust each other, business referrals flow naturally. Our offerings range from fortnightly Hub networking meetings to networking events, and we even have the Fresh Academy, designed to teach networking skills to help you reach both your networking and business goals.
Fresh Networking is the brainchild of Darren Kelk, a seasoned networker who became disillusioned with the rigidity and dollar-first focus of other business networking groups. So, on 1st October 2014, 15 people gathered at a hub in the Melbourne suburb of South Yarra to start something new—and Fresh was born! Since that moment, our mission has remained the same—to create a community of like-minded business leaders who embrace the value of connections-based networking.
