Great to attend the recent Bentleigh in Business | Connecting Our Community event hosted by Bentleigh Greens ⚽🤝

Andrew and Celeste from our team were in attendance on behalf of Talentblue, joining a fantastic group of sponsors, partners and local businesses who continue to strengthen the club’s growing business network 💼✨

A highlight of the evening saw Andrew unexpectedly pulled from the hat to deliver a 2-minute presentation on Talentblue. Put on the spot, he stepped up and did an outstanding job sharing how we operate and the value we bring to our clients and partners 🎤👏

It was also a valuable opportunity to speak directly with the committee and fellow sponsors, and to gain further insight into the strong community driving Bentleigh Greens both on and off the pitch 🏟️💚

Events like these are a great reminder of the power of connection within local sport and business networks — creating space for genuine conversations, collaboration, and shared growth 🌱🤝
