Where Australia's dealmakers do business.
Australia's business broker network — 20 years established, 100+ members, thousands of settled deals — gathers as one for the first time.
2027 is the year BBNA and The Platform meet the room. The first full year of the network operating as one — shared buyer pool, shared comparables, shared standards — and the first Exchange where every member is in the same place at the same time.
Not a hotel-ballroom trade show. Not a conference of sponsors and speakers. A working gathering of the operators actually doing the work — sharing what they've learned, what's working, and what's next.
The BBNA Exchange is not a paid add-on. It is the members-only annual gathering that comes with every BBNA membership — full three-day programme, all working sessions, and the awards dinner.
Launch applicants — approved before 1 January 2027 — receive priority accommodation allocation and speaker-slot consideration for the 2027 Exchange. This is the room where the standard for the next decade gets set. Being there matters.
Every BBNA membership contributes $120 a year to B1G1 — the Business For Good movement. On the final morning of the Exchange, the whole network sits down together to see what the year's giving actually did.
Projected figures based on 150 members and B1G1's illustrative impact rates. Actual project mix voted on annually by the membership.
The year's numbers, projects funded, and lives touched — shown in the room, on the screen, together. Not a slide in a deck; a moment in the programme.
Members choose the impact mix for the year ahead — education, meals, water, forest protection, or a specific B1G1 project of the membership's choosing.
Every attending member signs the year's Compact page — a physical record that a network of independent brokers stood together and gave, together, for another year.
“The deals we close pay for the lives we live. What we do together — that's what the industry remembers us for.”
The Gold Coast in October offers the best conditions on the Australian east coast — warm spring days, ocean views, world-class venues, and direct flights from every capital city. Members arrive rested and leave sharper.
Attendance is reserved for brokers within the BBNA network. If you're a licensed business broker interested in joining the network before 1 January 2027, we're currently accepting applications.
