Breakfast with a view at PHIVE

 

When leading Parramatta-based recruitment powerhouse, Reo Group, needed a space for their 2025 breakfast seminar that felt as sharp, modern, and ambitious as they are, PHIVE’s award-winning design and flexible spaces struck them as the perfect match.

A morning of big ideas

Against the light-filled backdrop of the Civic Gallery, 75 attendees gathered for a keynote presentation from renowned economist Paul Bloxham. Set up in a theatre format, the space came to life with PHIVE’s cutting-edge in-house AV - featuring a large stage, flat-screen TVS, and lectern microphones, delivering a flawless high-impact experience.

Spaces that flow as easily as the conversation

PHIVE’s state-of-the-art, flexible venues met Reo Group’s brief perfectly.

While the striking Civic Gallery played host to the main event, the adjoining Level 4 Foyer buzzed with energy as guests registered and mingled over artisanal breakfast platters and barista-made coffee.

Beyond the glass, the open-air terrace overlooking Parramatta Square offered a breath of fresh air — a perfect spot for relaxed networking under the morning sky, and providing a seamless flow between spaces.
 

“We had a wonderful experience hosting our event in the Civic Gallery. Our goal with events at Reo Group is to always provide a ‘wow factor’ for our guests, and this space truly delivered! So many of our delegates commented on how visually interesting the space is as they walked in." - Sarah Gray, Marketing Executive, Reo Group

Flexible and seamless event planning

Behind the scenes, PHIVE’s dedicated venue services team made event planning feel effortless. From supporting the client’s chosen caterer to seamless tech support, every detail was designed to elevate the guest experience and allow Reo Group to focus on what mattered most: meaningful connections and memorable conversations.
 

"The split out presentation area separate from the reception area was perfect for pre-seminar networking, and the staff on site were incredibly helpful with everything we needed on the day, and in the leadup to the event. Thank you to everyone we worked with at PHIVE/City of Parramatta, we will definitely be back!” - Sarah Gray, Marketing Executive, Reo Group
