SUMMARY:OMSB Evening Experience
DESCRIPTION:We created Uncommon Experiences because we dislike networking but love connecting. Talking to interesting people who are interested in us. If we couldn’t find this\, then others must be having the same issue. \nWe eliminated everything people dislike about conventional networking to make an intimate\, highly curated\, invitation-only experience and community. Complete with a connection framework designed to accelerate the building of relationships and mutual understanding without being “sold to.” This is Un-Networking. \nIt’s Common Sense\, yet almost every other networking event doesn’t understand the audience attending—who they are as a person or what’s most important to them. People want to work with those they like\, and to like someone\, you must know them. The stronger the relationship\, the more connected you are. The more connected you become\, the longer business relationships will last. We understand you are more than what you do and celebrate and showcase this. We don’t guarantee leads; we enhance relationships. \nWe remove the uncertainty around who you should be introduced to and why.\nWe eliminate superficial small talk like “So\, what do you do?” to go beyond the mundane talk about sports or house prices. We focus on ensuring everyone quickly builds deep connections and high levels of trust. \nYou will not be met with hundreds of business cards thrown at you or a room full of people selling while no one is listening. We call this Business Relations (BR). We are told we are different. We like to think everyone should receive this level of respect. \nOur promise is that at each Uncommon Experiences event you attend\, you will leave more inspired\, energized\, connected\, and motivated than when you walked in. \nWhen was the last event you attended that offered this kind of promise? \nPurpose of Each Event\nA fun and relaxed night out with your peers. We’ll help facilitate new and meaningful relationships.\n▪ Meet someone new\n▪ Reconnect with someone you know\n▪ Learn something new\n▪ Be reminded of something you know to be valuable but have forgotten \nReviews & Feedback\nSome feedback from attendees: \n“I’ve attended every kind of corporate event\, but the dinner I attended was hands down the best event I’ve been to in the last 5–6 years.” \n— Alan Hodgson\, Telephony and Network Lead at GPC Asia Pacific \n“When is the next one? I’m booking in now!” \nCan Anyone Attend This Dinner?\nNot exactly. The dinner is for men and by invitation only. We’re happy to review anyone you think would be a good fit\, but it is a private dinner\, and they can attend a future event.

SUMMARY:Show Me the Model\, Not the Hype by Raphael Fiorini
DESCRIPTION:Brilliant ideas die every day because their creators can’t prove they are viable. A financial digital twin turns napkin sketches into living models that reveal if your concept can survive\, scale and thrive. Drawing on over 35 years of taking complex\, ambiguous business ideas and concepts to market\, I’ll show you why it is important to make every assumption visible\, every scenario testable and every decision defensible\, taking that ‘cool concept” to either investor-funded or board-approved reality \n \n  \nWHY ATTEND\nNumbers not narratives\, decide who gets funded and who folds. You’ll see how a financial digital twin validates viability before you quit your day job\, how real-time stress-testing answers investors’ toughest questions on the spot\, and how modelling discipline replaces wishful thinking with quantified confidence.\n\nWHAT WILL YOU WALK AWAY WITH\nAn understanding on how a good Financial Digital Twin of your idea or business can lead to Faster Go/No-Go Calls\, compressing months of debate into an interactive model everyone can question objectively\, allowing you to walk into any room armed with defendable numbers\, not slide-ware.\n \nHOW WILL YOU FEEL AFTER (the 1 %-er)\nExpect to be more confident and calm under fire because any “what-if?” questions can be modelled and future shocks become rehearsed scenarios\, not surprises.\n \nWHO SHOULD ATTEND\nIdea-stage and pre-seed founders who need to know whether their concept can pay its own way\, corporates and scale-ups testing new products or markets\, and investors or advisors who want to cut through hype and see defendable numbers before writing cheques will all gain concrete\, actionable insights from this session. \nABOUT YOUR SPEAKER  —  RAPHAEL FIORINI \nRaphael is an ideator-turned-activator who has spent three decades translating first-of-their-kind technologies into commercial results. From helping commercialise the internet in Australia in the 1990s\, writing the broadband strategy for a European country\, helped develop the original business case for NBN\, architecting Telstra’s national Digital Twin business\, to co-founding a number of AI startups\, he has repeatedly proven that bold ideas only matter when the numbers stack up. \nAs Chief Commercial Officer\, he grew IoT-lighting scale-up Vivid Technology seven-fold in three years\, and earlier drove a 64 percent uplift in Hills Holdings’ share price by steering its pivot from heavy manufacturing to next-gen tech solutions. A background in Finance and Economics\, Raphael pairs deep analytical rigour with front-line go-to-market experience—skills he now uses to coach founders\, advise scale-ups and mentor Masters students on commercialising emerging technology. Whether raising capital\, stress-testing strategy\, or building a live financial digital twin\, he is known for stripping out hype\, exposing value drivers and turning vision into bankable growth.

SUMMARY:D.A.T.A Day Experience
DESCRIPTION:We created Uncommon Experiences because we dislike traditional networking but love genuine connections. We believe in engaging with interesting people who are truly interested in us. If we couldn’t find this\, we knew others must be facing the same challenge. \nSo\, we eliminated everything people dislike about conventional networking and built an intimate\, highly curated\, invitation-only experience. Our connection framework is designed to accelerate relationship-building and foster mutual understanding—without the pressure of being “sold to.” This is Un-Networking. \nToo many networking events miss the mark. They don’t consider who’s attending\, their interests\, or what truly matters to them. People want to work with those they like\, and genuine connections come from truly knowing someone. Stronger relationships lead to better collaboration and long-lasting business partnerships. We see you as more than just a job title—we celebrate and showcase who you really are. We don’t guarantee leads; we cultivate relationships. \nWe remove the guesswork about who you should meet and why. Forget superficial small talk like\, “So\, what do you do?” We go beyond mundane conversations about sports or real estate and focus on meaningful interactions that foster deep connections and trust. You won’t leave with a pile of business cards from people trying to sell to you—you’ll leave with real relationships. \nThis is what we call Business Relations (BR). People tell us we’re different. We believe everyone deserves this level of respect. \nOur promise? After each Uncommon Experience\, you’ll leave feeling inspired\, energized\, connected\, and motivated.

SUMMARY:Uncommon Mornington Day Experience
DESCRIPTION:It’s Common Sense to connect with amazing people and we created Uncommon Mornington to bring the people we know who live on the Mornington Peninsula to connect and truly get to know one another. An extension of our experiences that is a little more relaxed as an added benefit for our members to further build stronger relationships with each other and their friends and contacts who live on the coast \nIts great to meet wonderful people and find interesting and unique restaurants\, wineries and hidden establishments while continuing to build strong relationships with people that have also decided that living where they are is amazing. We are always looking for fantastic suggestions and family favourites to add to the list. \nThis booking is so that we know who is coming as we have grown it has become harder to book a place without the numbers. You will still purchase the meal you wish and pay for your own alcohol. \nWe have another group for people that reside on the Mornington Peninsula and that like to play golf. They usually tee off in the morning do 9 holes ruin a perfectly good walk then come and join us for lunch. We intend to have four different groups around Melbourne and bring them together once a year for a Golf Competition. If you are interested please reach out. \nWe created Uncommon Experiences because we dislike networking but love connecting. Talking to interesting people who are interested in us. If we couldn’t find this then others must be having the same issue. \nWe eliminated everything people dislike about conventional networking to make an intimate\, highly curated invitation-only experience and community.

SUMMARY:Uncommon West
DESCRIPTION:It’s Common Sense to connect with amazing people and we created How the West was Won First Friday to bring the people we know who live in the West to connect and truly get to know one another. An extension that is a little more relaxed as an added benefit for our members to further build stronger relationships with each other and their friends and contacts who live in the West. \nI moved to the West a few months before Covid and knew no one. It was lonely and a long way to visit or meet in the CBD. Its great to meet wonderful people and find interesting and unique restaurants\, wineries and hidden establishments while continuing to build strong relationships with people that have also decided that the West is Best. We are always looking for fantastic suggestions and family favourites to add to the list. \nThis Booking is so that we know who is coming as we have grown it has become harder to book a place. You will still purchase the meal you wish and pay for your own alcohol. \nWe also have a Golf Group that tees off and completes 9 holes before joining us for lunch if you are interested in ruining a good walk\, happy to introduce you. They play Ambrose at the amazing golf courses we have around the West. We have another group for people that reside on the Mornington Peninsula. We intend to have four different groups around Melbourne and bring them together once a year for a Golf Competition. \nWe created Uncommon Experiences because we dislike networking but love connecting. Talking to interesting people who are interested in us. If we couldn’t find this then others must be having the same issue. \nWe eliminated everything people dislike about conventional networking to make an intimate\, highly curated invitation-only experience and community. Complete with a connection framework designed to accelerate the building of relationships and mutual understanding without being “sold to.” This is Un-Networking.

SUMMARY:The Abundance Experience
DESCRIPTION:We crave connection and growth. To find it we often turn to networking organisations – all of them characterised by shallow conversations\, transactional relationships\, and the anxiety of impressing others. Lacking trust and accountability. \nThe secret to success in life and business is learning how to connect and form relationships with other people. \nHow can deep relationships be formed based on mutual trust and accountability? How do you rediscover intimate business relationships with depth and meaning? \nThe answer isn’t another app\, networking organisation or course. The answer lies in deep peer-based relationships that start with an abundance mindset at their foundation. \nBy building a space and a framework for giving we build greater trust\, collaboration and abundance in our lives. \n3 reasons why this works: \n\nScientifically Proven Reciprocity: Give before you ask.\nIncreased Influence: Build trust and collaboration.\nSimplicity in Asking: Create a space for giving.\n\n  \nAdd Value Don’t Trade Value\nNetworks are a vehicle for creating value for everyone\, not just claiming it for ourselves. \nIn traditional old-school reciprocity\, people traded value back and forth by only helping the people who helped them and giving to the people from whom they wanted something in return. To spark a more powerful form of reciprocity instead of trading value\, the aim is to add value. \nThe simple rule of attendance: the five-minute favour: \nYou must be willing to do something that will take you five minutes or less for anybody in the room. \nThis increases results by opening the door for you and others to gain benefits from people they’ve never helped— or even met. By creating a norm of adding value\, you transform giving from a zero-sum loss to a win-win gain. \nNetworks Advantage\nThe key benefits of participating in an abundance circle are: \n\nReal problems are solved\nIncrease of knowledge\nAchieve your goals\nHigh-quality connections\nCareer boost\nHappiness and Health\nTrust building\nReputation increase\n\nThe value you bring to the session includes:\n\nWhat you know (your knowledge)\nWhat you can do (your skills)\nWho you know (your network)\nWhat you have (your resources)\n\nBy developing a strong network\, people gain invaluable access to private information\, diverse skills\, expertise\, and influence. \nPeople go unappreciated because they give everything away for free to the wrong people. By surrounding yourself with other abundant people you allow the reciprocity to return to the group. \nMost people laugh when they hear that the secret to success is giving. Then again\, most people are nowhere near as successful as they wish they were. \nCome join in the abundance circle and experience the power of reciprocity. \nBook your ticket now.

SUMMARY:Uncommon Mornington
DESCRIPTION:It’s Common Sense to connect with amazing people and we created Uncommon Mornington to bring the people we know who live on the Mornington Peninsula to connect and truly get to know one another. An extension of our experiences that is a little more relaxed as an added benefit for our members to further build stronger relationships with each other and their friends and contacts who live on the coast \nIts great to meet wonderful people and find interesting and unique restaurants\, wineries and hidden establishments while continuing to build strong relationships with people that have also decided that living where they are is amazing. We are always looking for fantastic suggestions and family favourites to add to the list. \nThis booking is so that we know who is coming as we have grown it has become harder to book a place without the numbers. You will still purchase the meal you wish and pay for your own alcohol. \nWe have another group for people that reside on the Mornington Peninsula and that like to play golf. They usually tee off in the morning do 9 holes ruin a perfectly good walk then come and join us for lunch. We intend to have four different groups around Melbourne and bring them together once a year for a Golf Competition. If you are interested please reach out. \nWe created Uncommon Experiences because we dislike networking but love connecting. Talking to interesting people who are interested in us.

Who they are as a person or what’s most important to them. People want to work with those that they like\, and to like someone you must know them. The stronger the relationship the more connected you are. The more connected you become the longer business relations will last. We understand you are more than what you and we celebrate and showcase this. We don’t guarantee leads we enhance relationships.
