Overview
The first annual Australian Startup to Scaleup Summit (S2S Summit) brought to you by Tank Stream Labs celebrates the key milestones in a founder's journey from idea through to successful exit.
Join us on Thursday 16th November 2023 for a full-day event of keynote presentations, panel discussions, education, leadership development, and networking with fellow peers and industry leaders in the Australian startup and scaleup ecosystem.
Our program for the day has been carefully crafted to represent all stages of the founder journey involving all ecosystem partners including founders, investors, accelerators/incubators, Universities, Corporates, and Government.
Learn new insights, build new strategies, and expand your network.
On top of the Summit program, we have two exciting initiatives for participants to be involved in:
Demo Showcase - Exhibiting a selection of innovative Australian technology-focused start-ups across a range of industries.
Pitch Competition - There will be an opportunity for any startup/scaleup that has purchased a ticket to apply to enter the S2S Summit Pitch Competition in partnership with Startup&Angels, with a $10,000 prize. Application details are provided with any purchased ticket.
