Monthly 100% networking event — making and receiving referrals with like-minded businesses in Auckland

B2B Mixer Auckland — 100% Networking. Real Conversations. Real Referrals.

A monthly 100% networking event for making and receiving referrals with like-minded businesses in Auckland.

No speakers. No slide decks. No sitting in rows for an hour before you get to talk to anyone. Just focused conversation with business owners who are actively looking to refer work — and to be referred.

Why B2B Mixer is different

Most networking events are a small amount of networking wrapped in a lot of everything else. We cut the everything else. The whole session is the networking — meeting the people most likely to send business your way, and working out who you can send business to.

What you'll walk away with

• Introductions to business owners and decision-makers across Auckland who are actively building referral relationships
• A clear idea of who in the room can refer you — and who you can refer
• A handful of genuine follow-ups, rather than a stack of cards that never get used
• The kind of long-term relationships that keep sending work back to you

Who comes

Business owners | Directors | Consultants | Freelancers | Sales professionals | Service providers | Anyone whose business grows on referrals

How it works

Arrive, get a drink at the bar, and start talking. It is relaxed, structured enough that nobody ends up stranded in a corner, and pointed entirely at connecting the right people to each other.

Your ticket is free — we simply ask that you buy a drink at the bar.

Where: The Occidental, 6/8 Vulcan Lane, Auckland City, Auckland 1010

Bring: Your business cards, and a clear idea of the referral you are looking for

About the venue

A Belgian-style pub rated 4.3 from more than 4,000 reviews, mid-priced, open 9am to 11:30pm Monday to Thursday. Reviewers praise the mussels and the Belgian beer list, and describe a characterful room on a pedestrian lane, with no traffic noise and outdoor tables in good weather. Reservations are advisable at peak times.

Getting there

The venue is on Vulcan Lane, a pedestrianised alley off Queen Street in the Auckland CBD. Waitematā station, formerly Britomart, is five minutes' walk and is the city's main transport hub, linking trains, buses and ferries under one roof. CBD parking is expensive, so the transport centre is the better option.

Doors from 5pm. Come early, stay as long as it is useful.
