Young Ambition.
Built in a club.

Join a network of fast moving visionaries shaping tomorrow’s world.

AS SEEN ON

There is a phase no one talks about. The moment you know who you are becoming, but the world has not caught up yet. You work quietly. You think differently. The people around you start to feel unfamiliar.

You are no longer aligned with your old environment, yet you are not rewarded by a new one.

This stage can feel isolating when faced alone. It becomes powerful when shared with others who recognise it and are moving in the same direction.

Sometimes, all it takes is one room of people who believe in you to change everything.

Welcome to the
Young Momentum Experience

Meetups

Monthly Think Tanks

A curated private networking experience designed to connect ambitious young visionaries in the Hills district.

Young Momentum’s Monthly Think Tanks bring together motivated young people who want to grow, collaborate, and excel in business or their careers. A first of its kind experience in the Hills District.

On the last Tuesday of each month, members receive their group details and location in advance. Every detail is handled behind the scenes, from venue selection to room curation and thoughtful group matching. This creates space to focus entirely on meaningful conversation and genuine connection.

Surrounded by Top Thinkers

Members are carefully vetted through our core principles. You are never chosen for how you appear on paper, but for the values that shape who you are becoming.

This is not a circle of wantrepreneurs. This is where the next generation of thinkers and doers come together, people who are actively leading or preparing to lead, and who want to be surrounded by others on the same mission, not just talking about it.

Building a career or company? You are welcome here.

Whether you are building in your career, launching your first venture, or quietly preparing your next move, there is space for you here.

Many members arrive without full clarity. What they share is a willingness to keep putting one foot in front of the other.

Networking spaces across the Hills district

We work closely with a select group of venue partners across the Hills District, giving members access to a wide range of locations for our meetups.

Events

Seasonal Masterminds

Private and exclusive events featuring accomplished founders, operators, and business leaders in the Hills district.

Experienced speakers who share real stories, local knowledge, hard earned lessons, and the thinking behind their success, including the wins, the mistakes, and the decisions that shaped their journey.

Masterminds are designed to challenge how you think and expand how you operate, each event supports both personal growth and professional progress.

Whether you are advancing your career or building something of your own, you will gain insight from leading figures across your industry.

Direct access to the Hills’ most experienced industry leaders

Our partnership with the Sydney Hills Business Chamber links us with top business minds in the Hills district.

From their deep understanding of the local business landscape, real-world operational experience, and advice on how to start, grow, and manage successful companies.

Growing Partnership Network

Through partnerships with Bedford College and the Hills Shire Council, Young Momentum introduces members to established business programs, leadership development pathways, and specialised training opportunities.

These relationships provide visibility, guidance, and pathways as members progress.

Unique opportunities

Build relationships, ask questions, and open doors to roles and projects that don’t show up on job boards. Being in the same room as local business leaders gives you a genuine chance to push your career forward.

Educate

Learning & Access

Ongoing learnings designed to help you accelerate in business and the modern workforce.

Monthly communications and curated newsletters provide members with practical insights, proven frameworks, local updates, and perspectives drawn from real-world experience. The focus is clarity over noise, helping you think sharper, move faster, and avoid common mistakes.

This learning layer supports what happens in person, reinforcing ideas between meetups and events so progress continues beyond the room.

Private Educational Opportunities

Through our connection with Bedford College, members gain access to private educational opportunities designed to accelerate career growth.

Bedford College’s nationally recognised business, leadership and management programs blend practical skills with real-world insights, equipping you with the confidence to lead, innovate and grow in today’s fast-paced environment.

E-Learnings & Resources

Learnings start at the individual level, from avoiding common early-career mistakes, through to leading teams and scaling organisations.

Every framework, strategy, and system we share is grounded in real experience, shaped within our own ecosystem and the businesses of experienced leaders we invite to speak. These are people operating real revenue, leading real teams, and carrying real risk.

Monthly Newsletter

Stay up to date with the latest trends and practical resources to help you move ahead.

We share insights from tools and habits we actively use, along with resources other founders have found genuinely valuable.

Young Momentum’s Core Values

A curiosity-driven mindset

Growth starts with curiosity. We value people who ask thoughtful questions, challenge assumptions, and stay open to learning. Curiosity keeps us adaptable, grounded, and continuously improving.

Built on collaboration

Progress is stronger when it is shared. We build alongside others, support each other’s growth, and contribute openly. Success is not diminished when shared, it is multiplied.

Learning through action

Insight only matters when it is applied. We believe progress comes from testing ideas, learning by doing, and taking ownership of outcomes. Momentum is created through real-world application.

Comfortable stretching beyond familiar ground

Growth often begins where certainty ends. We encourage stepping into new conversations, environments, and responsibilities, using challenge as a signal for development rather than something to avoid.

Community first

No one builds momentum alone. Our community creates accountability, perspective, and shared energy. When individuals grow together, everyone moves further than they would on their own.

Ownership and integrity

We value personal responsibility, honesty, and follow-through. Members take ownership of their growth, respect the people around them, and act in ways that build trust within the community.

Why we build Young Momentum

Whether launching a first venture or finding footing in a career, the path can feel isolating. When young visionaries decide to pursue something bigger, the same challenges tend to surface.

The desire for more is clear, but direction has shifted faster than the environment around you. There is no one close by to challenge thinking, inspire progress, or support real growth.

This is the space between who you were and who you are becoming.

Young Momentum refers to this as the ‘Purgatory Phase’. Learn more >

Young Momentum exists to change that.

Designed for 18–30 year olds in the Hills District, it is built around connection, shared ambition, and personal growth.

For those seeking an ambitious community and a place to grow, connect, and build something meaningful, this is it.
