Why We Created The Summit Events (And Why You’ll Want to Be There)

I still remember attending my first industry event.

I arrived full of excitement and high hopes, but I left feeling like something was missing.

It was a day packed with PowerPoint slides, polished speakers, and a notebook full of ideas that quickly got buried under the daily chaos of property management life. There was no real transformation, no lasting impact.

That’s why, three years ago, Hermione and I decided to do something different.

The Summit Events were never about creating "just another conference." They were born from a simple but powerful idea:

What if we could create rooms where property management professionals didn’t just listen- they transformed?

Because we know what it’s like.

We know how relentless this industry can be.

The constant balancing act between compliance, client expectations, tech changes and rent roll growth.

The late nights wonder if you’re doing enough for your team, clients, and business. The unspoken pressure to always keep up.

We get it because we’ve lived it.

That’s why every element of The Summit Events has been designed with one thing in mind, what you truly need to thrive. Not just more ideas, but real strategies, real support, and a community that actually gets it.

So why one-day events?

We know you’re busy.

You don’t need another week away from the office. You need impact. Fast.

That’s why The BDM Summit and The PM Summit are intentionally designed as one powerhouse day to give you the maximum value, connection, and strategy without downtime. You walk in needing answers and leave with a clear plan and real momentum.

What makes The Summit Events different?

It’s not about sitting in a chair for hours ticking a CPD box.

It’s about getting into the room with speakers, coaches, and industry legends who don’t just talk about success, they live and breathe it every day.

We hand-select every speaker based on one simple rule: they must deliver actionable takeaways you can start using immediately.

No fluff. No "inspo-only" sessions. Every single workshop, keynote, and panel is packed with real strategies, real scripts, and real frameworks.

And yes, it’s interactive.

You won’t be stuck just listening; you’ll be workshopping, brainstorming, and connecting with the people around you. You'll leave with more than just notes, you'll leave with answers, ideas, and a renewed sense of direction.

Here’s when and where the events are happening:

🗓 The BDM Summit 📍 Manly Pacific, Sydney 📅 Friday 20th June 2025

🗓 The PM Summit 📍 Leonda by the Yarra, Melbourne 📅 Thursday 7th August 2025

It’s about more than learning.

It's about finding your people.

At every Summit, the energy is electric. Conversations spark. Ideas fly. Collaborations form. Attendees leave with new networks, new plans, and a whole lot more belief in what’s possible for them and their businesses.

You’re not just gaining knowledge, you’re leveling up.

Why it matters now, more than ever

Right now, our industry is facing some big challenges, we hear you and see you.

Staff retention is harder than ever. Investor confidence is shifting. The margin for error is shrinking. If we don’t invest in ourselves and our teams, we risk falling behind.

And I believe with everything in me: the businesses that will thrive over the next 5-10 years are the ones where the people inside them are equipped not just to survive the changes but to lead through them.

That’s what The BDM Summit and The PM Summit are all about.

Giving you the skills. The support. The space to step into the leader your business needs next.
