💛 KISMETRIX \| True Connection 📍 Alfie's Bar, 167 Franklin Street, Melbourne CBD 📅 Saturday, 4 July 2026 🕙 9:30 PM – 11:30 PM 🎟 Early Bird $15 \| Last Release $25 🥂 Includes a welcome drink on arrival Melbourne Singles Social \| Ages 23–33 Let's be honest. Meeting new people as an adult can be surprisingly hard. Most people already have their own friendship groups. Dating apps can feel repetitive. And approaching someone at a bar isn't always easy when you have no idea if they're interested in meeting anyone. That's why we created KISMETRIX. A relaxed Saturday night where everyone is single, most people come solo, and everyone is there for the same reason — to meet new people, have a good time, and see where the conversation leads. No speed dating. No awkward icebreakers. No pressure. Just a fun night out with people who are genuinely open to meeting someone new. Whether you're looking for dating, friendship, new connections, or simply a better way to spend your Saturday night, you'll be surrounded by others doing the same. ## What to Expect 🥂 Welcome drink included on arrival 🍸 Full bar available throughout the evening 🤝 Friendly hosts to help introductions happen naturally 💬 A room full of Melbourne singles aged 23–33 🎶 Great music and a social atmosphere where you can actually have a conversation ✨ A welcoming environment where showing up solo is completely normal ## Who Comes Along? Young professionals, creatives, entrepreneurs, students, and everyday people from across Melbourne. Some are looking for a relationship. Some are newly single. Some just want to meet new people and get off the apps for a night. Most guests arrive on their own, which is exactly what makes these events work. ## Why People Love These Nights Because everyone is open to meeting people. You're not interrupting friendship groups. You're not guessing who's single. And you're not trying to make a dating app profile sound more interesting than it needs to be. Just real people, real conversations, and a genuinely fun night out. ## Important Information • This is a hosted singles social event, not a speed dating event • A welcome drink is included with every ticket • Additional drinks and food are available for purchase at the venue • We aim for a balanced mix of attendees where possible, though numbers may vary • Respect, kindness, and consideration for others are expected at all KISMETRIX events • Tickets are non-refundable but may be transferred to another person KISMETRIX reserves the right to manage attendance and participation, including declining or removing entry where necessary, to ensure a positive and respectful experience for all guests. ## About KISMETRIX KISMETRIX hosts Melbourne singles events designed to help people meet naturally in real life.

**\*\*\*RSVP PROCESS - CRITICAL INFO\*\*\*** Please be aware, we don't use the Meetup website to take RSVPs, so you will need to register on this link to lock in your place (bookings essential) - [https://propdev.info/uMKh](https://propdev.info/uMKh) We run events most weekends around Australia so you can attend either physically in your local area, or live-stream to any event around the country. **In-Person:** 1:30pm (Melbourne time) to 'Mingle With The Expert' **Virtual:** 2pm (Melbourne time) **INTRODUCING THE INDUSTRY EXPERT:** *Finance Secrets Smart Developers Use! AUSUN Finance (Thomas Tang)* You’ve found a great site. The numbers work. Then the finance falls apart. The loan gets declined. Conditions change midway through the deal. Settlement gets delayed. Or worse… the project never happens at all. For many small-to-medium developers, the biggest risk isn’t finding the deal… it’s getting the finance right. And most people make the same mistakes: Using inexperienced brokers, approaching the wrong lenders, presenting deals poorly, or not understanding how lenders actually assess development projects. That’s why we’re excited to have Thomas Tang from AUSUN Finance joining us as our next Industry Expert at Property Developer Network. Thomas specialises in Construction & Development Finance and has been involved in funding countless development projects across the country. As a second-generation developer with one of the highest lending volumes nationally, Thomas understands exactly how lenders think, how brokers and bankers operate behind the scenes, and what developers need to do to position themselves correctly in today’s market. In this presentation, Thomas will break down: • What lenders are REALLY looking for right now • Why deals get delayed, declined, or repriced • The biggest mistakes developers make when applying for finance • How to build long-term relationships with the right lenders and brokers • What you can do immediately to improve your chances of funding success Because in today’s market… the developers who understand finance are the ones still getting deals done. **INTRODUCING THE REAL DEAL:** *1 into 4 Townhouses (Helen Shao)* *1042m2, NRZ, Boroondara, Victoria* You’ve finally secured a development site. Council approvals are underway. The builder is ready to go. Then the market shifts. Town planning drags on for months. Uncertainty kicks in. And suddenly you’re left wondering… “Do I push ahead… or wait?” For many small-to-medium developers, knowing when to move — and when to hold back — can make or break a project. That’s why we’re excited to have Helen Shao joining us to share her latest Real Deal project at Property Developer Network. Using a delayed settlement strategy to secure the site, Helen navigated the uncertainty of the Covid-19 period while managing lengthy town planning delays and carefully timing the start of construction as the market stabilised. In this Real Deal presentation, Helen will walk you through the realities of managing a development during uncertain market conditions, including: • How delayed settlement helped secure the opportunity • The impact Covid had on planning and timing • Lessons learned through lengthy approval delays • How the project stayed on track during construction • What she would do differently next time If you’ve ever wondered how experienced developers adapt when the market throws curveballs at them… this is a presentation you won’t want to miss. **This is your chance to talk property with other enthusiasts!** See you all soon!

**Sticky stories are memorable, meaningful, and magnetic. They make people feel something — and that’s what makes them powerful.** You already tell stories — to friends, family, co-workers, and peers. You might need to inspire your team, persuade a colleague to support your ideas, or influence a client to say yes. But if your stories aren’t *sticky*, your message won’t land. It won’t be remembered. And it won’t drive action. Mastering the art of ‘sticky’ storytelling is one of the most valuable communication skills in today’s world. And the good news? It’s a skill anyone can learn. **THIS IS A CURATED GUEST EVENT** Whether you're new to public speaking or looking to elevate your influence and impact… Join us tonight at Port Melbourne Toastmasters as we dive into the principles of powerful storytelling that make messages truly stick. Get ready for a session that will help you speak with heart, connect with purpose, and leave a lasting impression. *Guests, Meetup Group members, and visiting Toastmasters attend for free.* 🌐 [www.portmelbournetoastmasters.org](http://www.portmelbournetoastmasters.org) 📍 Where: Find directions [here](https://www.portmelbournetoastmasters.org/directions.html) ***Port Melbourne Toastmasters is a club for people who are serious about developing their speaking, leadership, and personal presence.*** We offer limited, curated guest sessions throughout the year for prospective members. These sessions allow you to experience our high-engagement, growth-focused environment firsthand — without open access to every meeting.

Ease into your Sunday with a calm walk, meaningful conversation, and brunch with new people. This event is all about slowing down, getting out of the house, and connecting with others in a relaxed setting. We’ll start with a casual walk at the Fitzroy Markets so conversations can happen naturally, then continue the morning over brunch. It’s perfect if you want to meet new friends without the pressure of a big social event. You can come by yourself, bring an open mind, and let the conversation unfold. We’ll include a few simple BeSocial prompts to help break the ice and make it easier to get to know each other. Whether you’ve had a busy week, recently moved, or just want to build more real-life connection, this is a gentle way to reset and start the week feeling more connected. **Perfect for:** brunch lovers, Sunday walkers, people who prefer small groups, and anyone looking for genuine conversation.

You can sleep in on the Sesquicentennial (observed), we’re shifting to the following Friday. But join the local UX community for a chat and some biscuits to catch up. If you were in CA for Figma Config, tell us all the lines and you can tell me how I can animate an SVG without coding it by hand, and why I’d even want to. Thanks to the team at Nationwide of supporting the group.
