Conversations, Connections, & Cocktails: A Look Inside the Entrepreneurs’ Lunch Club

Some of the best business insights don’t come from a boardroom; they happen over lunch.

That’s the idea behind the Entrepreneur’s Lunch Club, a space for founders, creatives, and business owners to connect over good food and meaningful conversation. It’s networking, but more relaxed, more personal, and focused on building connections that last beyond the day.

An Italian Soirée at the Lansdowne Mansion

Our most recent lunch was held on April 6, 2025, at the Lansdowne Mansion in Melbourne, bringing an Italian-inspired setting to life. Fresh lemons dressed the tables, cocktails flowed, and conversations sparked naturally throughout the afternoon.

There was plenty of laughter, open discussion, and reflections on the journey of running a business – what’s changed, what’s stayed the same, and the value of sharing space with people who just get it.

Why It’s Not Your Typical Networking Event

No mic. No set agenda. No forced intros.

The Entrepreneurs’ Lunch Club is intentionally low-key. It’s a setting where people feel comfortable sharing their experiences, asking questions, and learning from one another, without needing to “sell” anything. It’s refreshing, and honestly, that’s the point.

What’s Next?

We’re planning the next round of lunches (and dinners), with more dates coming up across Melbourne. Each one will carry the same easy energy: good food, open conversations, and a mix of people who genuinely want to connect.

If this sounds like your kind of vibe, we’d love to have you at the next one.

And if you’re thinking of hosting your own networking or social event, MCO Events can help make it happen. From small gatherings to relaxed client catch-ups, we bring the same thoughtful approach to every event we run.

New dates will be announced soon, so watch this space!
