November 2026
Something special is coming…
A brand-new live event for allied health practice owners.
This November, we’re bringing allied health practice owners together for a one-day event.
Not another conference.
Not a day packed with information you’ll never use (even if you had good intentions!)
Instead, we’re creating something that feels a little different.
A place where you’ll leave with practical ideas, genuine conversations, renewed energy and a reminder that running a practice doesn’t have to be something you figure out on your own.
If you’ve been craving a day to step out of the day-to-day, think about your business, meet other practice owners and leave feeling inspired, we’d love you to be part of it.
Why CONNECT?
Running a great allied health practice is about more than learning new business strategies.
It’s about staying connected…
- Connected to the knowledge that gives you the confidence to make good business decisions.
- Connected to your people… those who understand the excitement, the uncertainty, the big decisions and the everyday moments that come with leading a practice.
- Connected to yourself… because somewhere between looking after clients, and managing everything that comes with running a practice, it’s easy to lose sight of the person who started it all.
That’s why we’ve created CONNECT.
A day to step away from the busyness, reconnect with what matters most, and return to your practice with fresh ideas, renewed energy and meaningful connections that continue long after the day is over.
Who is it for?
If you’re an allied health practice owner (or dreaming of becoming one), then we’d love to welcome you.
Whether you’re:
- Just starting your private practice journey.
- A sole trader wearing every hat.
- Leading a small team.
- Growing a larger practice across multiple locations.
- Wondering what’s next after years in business.
- Looking for fresh ideas and renewed energy.
This day has been designed for you.
We welcome practice owners from all allied health professions, including occup ational therapy, physiotherapy, speech pathology, exercise physiology, podiatry, psychology, dietetics and many more.
No matter what stage you’re at, our hope is that you’ll leave with practical ideas, meaningful conversations and at least one new connection that makes the journey feel a little easier.
You’ll leave with…
While we’re still putting the finishing touches on the program, here’s what you can look forward to:
- Practical business ideas you can take back to your practice straight away.
- Inspiring conversations with experienced practice owners and industry experts.
- Plenty of time to connect with other allied health business owners.
- Real stories, honest conversations and generous sharing.
- Space to step away from the daily demands and think about the future of your practice.
- A relaxed, welcoming atmosphere where you'll feel comfortable from the moment you arrive.
And hopefully, you’ll drive home thinking…
“That was exactly what I needed.”

Frequently Asked Questions
We want you to have a great, stress-free time at this event. Part of that great feeling comes from knowing the fine print! So we have broken it down here for you:
When is CONNECT?
CONNECT will be held in November 2026 with the location being announced soon.
We’re just finalising the last few details, so if you join the Priority List you’ll be the first to hear the official date, venue and when tickets go on sale.
Is this a conference?
Not in the traditional sense.
CONNECT has been designed to feel different.
Rather than a day packed with back-to-back presentations, we’re creating an experience that combines practical learning, genuine conversations and plenty of opportunities to connect with other allied health practice owners.
Our goal is for you to leave feeling inspired, supported and clear on your next steps – not overwhelmed by information.
Are flights included in the cost?
Please note the cost does not include flights – you will need to purchase these yourself. Travel insurance is also not included. This will need to be purchased by yourself. Choosing travel insurance will be at your own discretion. We recommend that travel insurance covers you for cancellations, medical expenses, and injury at a minimum, if you choose to take insurance. The Connection is not liable for any out of pocket expenses that insurance will not cover and will not be held responsible financially or in kind should your insurance or lack of insurance not cover your personal circumstances. Itinerary and other details that are published in good faith may be changed if required.
Who is CONNECT for?
CONNECT has been created for allied health private practice owners at every stage of business.
Whether you’re just starting out, running a solo practice, leading a growing team or managing multiple locations, you’ll find practical ideas, meaningful conversations and people who understand your journey.
We welcome practice owners from all allied health professions.
I'm not sure anyone else will be at the same stage as me.
That’s one of the things we’re most excited about.
Every practice owner brings different experiences, challenges and ideas to the day. Whether you’re in your first year of business or have been running your practice for decades, you’ll have plenty to contribute and even more to learn from others.
Some of the best conversations happen between people at completely different stages of their journey.
What will the day include?
We’re still putting the finishing touches on the program, but you can expect:
- Practical business ideas you can implement.
- Inspiring guest speakers and conversations.
- Time to connect with other practice owners.
- Opportunities to reflect on your practice and where it’s heading.
- A relaxed, welcoming atmosphere.
We’ll share the full program with everyone on the Priority List before tickets go on sale.
Will there be an online option?
CONNECT has been designed as an in-person experience.
While we know not everyone will be able to attend, we believe the conversations, relationships and shared experience are what will make this event so special.
