Fitness Australia and Leisure-net Solutions will today be launching active-net Australasia at the 2015 National Symposium. 

Due to take place in Melbourne in July next year, the active-net event aims to bring together operators from across Australia and New Zealand for a business-focused networking event and high level business-skills workshops.

Commenting on Fitness Australia's partnership and support, Fitness Australia Chief Executive Lauretta Stace stated "we want the fitness industry to make better connections for a stronger, well-connected and effective industry.

"That’s why we’re bringing this one-to-one networking series to Australia.” 

Similar to the UK event, which is now in its second year, active-net Australasia will comprise of 16 one-to-one business meetings between suppliers and operators, as well as a networking lunch and dinner and an educational thread with a keynote speaker and workshops, including an industry leaders’ question and answer panel. 

Mike Hill, active-net organiser and Director of Leisure-net Solutions added “we are very proud to be working with Fitness Australia to host this event. 

“We have had a great initial reaction from Australian operators and suppliers, but also companies from the UK who have attended our UK event and are exploring cost effective ways to expand into the Australian and New Zealand markets.” 

Places are available for 50 suppliers and 50 operators and, as with the UK event, active-net Australasia will be free for senior managers/directors to attend, thanks to the generous support of leading suppliers in the sector.
