About this Event

Founder Speed Meet

Founder Speed Meet ✦ Founders & Co-founders Only

​Step into a room alive with possibility.

​At 6pm, the doors open, founders arrive, the music hums, people say their first hello's, it's homely. That springtime energy hits. You’re stepping into a space where everyone in the room gets what it means to build.

​By 6:30pm, the buzz is in full swing. We kick off speed networking: quick rounds, real conversations, and no wasted minutes. You’ll talk to more founders in one hour than most people manage in months. Connections that come easily.

​And when the speed meet and greet ends?
The real connection begins; to follow up with a few of those founders you clicked with. That’s when the magic really happens – the ones you connected with most stick around, conversations and a few laughs occur, and new friendships and collaborations start to form.

​Why This Night Matters

​•⁠ ⁠It’s curated. This isn’t a free-for-all. We’re intentional about who’s in the room; builders, creatives, entrepreneurs, operators; people shaping Melbourne’s and Australia’s startup scene.

​•⁠ ⁠It’s fast-paced and fun. No endless pitches or business-card spam. Just sharp, energising conversations designed for momentum.

​•⁠ ⁠It’s community. A taste of what Homely.club is building: co-working days, founder dinners and retreats

​The Flow
•⁠ ⁠6:00pm: Arrivals, drinks, snacks, light chats, the room warms up.
•⁠ ⁠6:30pm: Speed networking begins (1 hour of high-energy rotations).
•⁠ ⁠7:30pm onwards: Stay back, reconnect, and carry on the conversations that matter most.

​Who You’ll Meet Founders who’ve launched. Founders still building. Solo operators. Creatives scaling big ideas. Investors and advisors curious to meet the next wave.

​People who don’t just talk about what they’re building – they’re in it, just like you.

​✨ This isn’t just another event on your calendar. It’s a chance to plug into Melbourne’s most energising founder community and leave with more than just new contacts – you’ll leave with people who could change your journey.

​Spots are intentionally limited.
👉 Reserve your spot today.
