History of the Source

In late 2008, the idea for the the Source was born, a leading professional development organisation aiming to provide opportunities for the motivated, innovative, and up-and-coming business people of Brisbane city. Following in the footsteps, and carrying the highly recognised reputation of the Brisbane Junior Chamber of Commerce, the Source grew from years of knowledge, since the establishment of BJCC in 1983 by Mathew Brannelly and a number of forward-thinking colleagues. In realising Brisbane's lack of business and personal development opportunities, BJCC provided an environment which specifically catered for young professionals looking for a chance to break apart from the pack.

From its humble beginnings of ten members and a guest speaker once a month, the BJCC expanded and grew through the word-of-mouth of its many inspired members.
