It was an inspiring session with Caroline Carnegie, Managing Director of Melbourne Victory Football Club. She shared valuable insights on the intersection of sports, business, and community, emphasising the importance of leadership, teamwork, and resilience. Her perspective on driving success on and off the field resonated with everyone in the room. Caroline shared her impressive career journey, starting as a student and progressing to become a lawyer before transitioning into the sports industry. Her path led her to roles as a board director and eventually the managing director of a major sporting club, Melbourne Victory.

Thank you to our sponsors, the Inner North Community Foundation, Melbourne Polytechnic, and Macpherson Kelley.

Well done to everyone for their outstanding achievements and contributions!

The next NBAA will take place on 5 June 2025. Stay tuned for more updates!
