The Melbourne Football Club has recently launched a new initiative - the Melbourne Business Community - representing our next phase in business networking.

The Club aims to have the most effective business community in the AFL, creating a unique opportunity for networking, business and friendship, through a variety of inner sanctum experiences, events, information and offerings throughout the season.

Chris Connolly, General Manager of Club Development, will focus strongly on overseeing the continuous evolvement of this area, and is encouraging all supporters to get involved.

“We want to have a competitive edge on the other clubs, and this is a particular space we have been working hard in over the last few years. Our aim in 2012 is to sign up 500 Melbourne Business Community members, and to do this, we need your support,” he said.

The Melbourne Business Community provides a chance for you to engage, interact and do business with hundreds of professionals from a range of industries, united by the Melbourne Football Club.

You can choose to become a standard Melbourne Business Community member, or you may prefer to become involved in one of our specific Melbourne Business Community groups, which are focused on a particular industry or interest.

“I encourage all those in business, whether you are a Melbourne supporter or not, to sign up and experience what it means to be a part of this unique community.”
