Vinnies CEO Sleepout

Com-X are giving back!

Leadership from Com-X have joined other Leaders from across multiple industries at the Vinnies CEO Sleepout in Balmain, Sydney.

Com-X co-founders Qui Truong and Stephen Laird were joined by General Manager of Sales Marketing, Nick Cross at this overnight event on one of the longest and coldest nights of the year. Hundreds of CEOs, business owners as well as community and government leaders sleep outdoors to support the many Australians who are experiencing homelessness and people at risk of homelessness.

Hearing about Homelessness

The evening provided an opportunity for business leaders to learn first hand how homelessness could impact any individual. With speakers sharing their experiences and the support Vinnie’s provide.

“Every night, more than 122,000 people are experiencing homelessness across Australia, with the majority being women and children. These are horrific numbers and with economic changes impacting every household we, as Com-X, wanted to give back to the communities in which we operate in, as an important part of our ethos” said Nick.
