From March 2024 we'll be opening our exclusive North West MPX Online Networking Hub - A bonus layer of networking capabilities and opportunities, exclusive to North West MPX Sponsors and Registered attendees.
2024 is the first year we'll be offering something innovative and special for our attendees and sponsors.
Not unlike a social media platform, the hub will provide options to upload a profile photo, business details, networking statement, links and contact information.
As sponsors and attendees arrive at the North West MPX, they'll be issued with a lanyard featuring a unique QR code which will be linked up to their profile on the hub.

We pay our respect to their Elders past and present and extend that respect to all Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples today and their connections to land, sea and community.
