Salty Nights

A night for creatives, business owners, managers and big thinkers building something meaningful on the South Coast.

Back by popular demand, Salty Nights returns — and this time, we’re going even deeper.

This isn’t another surface-level networking event.
This is a night for the ones who are shaping what comes next — and the ones who want to know what is coming!

Why this night matters

Right now, many business owners, creatives, leaders and managers are craving connection that goes beyond small talk — and answers that cut through the noise.

At Salty Nights, we talk about the stuff that rarely makes it to the surface:
Growth that actually feels good.
The future of doing business on the coast.
How to stay relevant — and stay human — in changing times.

You’ll walk away with insight, ideas, and connections that can move the needle in your life and work.

This is for you if…

• You run or manage a business or brand and want real conversations about what’s working now — not just generic inspiration
• You’re building something with purpose, and want to connect with others doing the same
• You’re craving a fresh spark: new energy, bold ideas, and honest conversations

This probably isn’t for you if…

• You’re looking for a traditional seminar or sit-down dinner
• You prefer staying in your comfort zone
• You don’t enjoy meeting new people or exploring new ideas

What’s Covered

The Panel

Hosted by Salty Magazine founder Charms Baltis, this off-the-cuff, no-filter panel brings together five of the South Coast’s boldest voices:

• Dr Michael Holland – MP for Bega, Parliamentary Secretary for Health
• Mathew Hatcher – Mayor of Eurobodalla, Director of Guerrilla Roasters
• Libby Cupitt – Director, Cupitt’s Estate
• Josh Tyler – GM, Oaks Ranch
• Tash Coxon – Founder, Oyster Farmers Daughter

Together, they’ll dive into:

• What it really takes to grow a business in a regional place
• How to future-proof your brand in uncertain times
• What’s changing across our coast — and how to stay ahead
• Honest lessons on reinvention, resilience, and relevance

You’ll get to ask your own questions too — this is a conversation, not a lecture.
