Apropela Christmas Gathering

Last night, we brought together our past and present Apropela CEOs, founders, alumni, and National Ambassadors for an unforgettable evening hosted at the beautiful home of one of our founders, Melissa Widner.

Surrounded by some of Australia’s most exceptional female founders, we celebrated a year of growth, facing challenges, meaningful connections, and the extraordinary impact created when the right people meet at the right time.

We toasted with champagne, shared wins, and ended the night with a powerful fireside chat with Sharon Nouh, whose journey from early-stage founder to successful exit is a testament to what’s possible when ambition meets the right network.

A heartfelt thank you to everyone who joined us — and to the entire Apropela community for another remarkable year.

We look forward to continuing to accelerate Australia’s leading female founders in 2026.

Here’s to even bigger things ahead. ✨
