🚀 Ray White Connect 2025: Exploring Our Horizons on the Gold Coast

The Ray White Connect conference returned bigger than ever in August 2025, bringing over 3,000 members together on the Gold Coast for two days of inspiration, education, and unparalleled connection. Under the theme “Exploring Our Horizons,” the event challenged our entire network to redefine what’s possible and solidify our commitment to providing an elevated, connected experience for every client.

An Unforgettable Speaker Lineup

Connect 2025 delivered a truly world-class program designed to inspire growth far beyond real estate. Attendees heard from global leaders and change-makers, sharing stories of resilience, leadership, and elite performance:

• Daniel Ricciardo (F1 Superstar): Headlined the event in a rare interview, offering lessons on pressure, mindset, and authentic personal branding.
• Joe Brumm (Creator of Bluey): Shared the creative journey behind the global phenomenon, focusing on story-telling and genuine connection.
• Shelley Sullivan (MCoBeauty Founder): Provided a masterclass in leadership and scaling a business from a startup to a billion-dollar global powerhouse.

• Brian White AO & Professor Boris Groysberg: The Group Chairman shared exclusive insights on the foundational leadership principles that built the Ray White network over decades.

High Performance & Future Focus

The key message from the White family leadership team was clear: If you want to go fast, go alone. If you want to go far, go together. The conference focused on how our collective size and collaboration give the network an “unfair advantage” in the marketplace.

• Strategic Insights: Breakout sessions provided tangible strategies across sales, property management, technology roadmaps, and luxury marketing, ensuring every attendee left with practical tools to elevate their business.
• Celebrating Success: The conference culminated in the magnificent International Awards Night, where we proudly celebrated the exceptional achievements and record-breaking performance of our top agents and offices from across the network.

Giving Back and Strengthening Our Roots

Connect 2025 was also a powerful reminder of our commitment to community and our humble beginnings:

• A Home For All: An incredible effort saw the network raise over $50,000 through a charity auction to combat homelessness. These funds benefit the new A Home For All Foundation and Mobilise, reflecting the property industry’s vital role in addressing housing insecurity.
• Back to The Shed: The event officially kicked off by honoring our heritage with a welcome event at The Shed in Crows Nest, the site where Ray White first began his business in 1902.

Connect 2025 was more than a conference; it was a powerful affirmation of our shared ambition, our unique culture, and the exciting new horizons we are exploring together as the leading property group.
