A Night of Innovation // The Fifth Industrial Revolution

Imagine a future where WA leads the world in ethical disruption – a future where technological advancement amplifies humanity. 

We’re thrilled to announce ‘A Night of Innovation // The Fifth Industrial Revolution,’ a bigger, bolder, and brighter edition of our Night of Innovation series. 

In the era of the Fifth Industrial Revolution, bold ideas don’t just happen — they transform industries by blending human intelligence with the power of generative AI.

Join our live discussion as we fire up debates such as:

• Humans and Machines collaborating? Real or imagined?
• What they aren’t telling us about AGI
• A.I. Agents – the risks and opportunities
• Will A.I. make our brains smaller?
  

ECU together with supporters Modern People, Creative Tech Village, SoMedia and WA Museum Boola Bardip are joining forces to deliver our most disruptive edition of a Night of Innovation yet. Once again, we’re committing to propelling as many WA startups as possible on their path to success, but this time, we’re upping the ante. Expect a strong investor presence, a streamlined group of startups with longer pitch times, and more generous prizes than ever before.

What can you expect from the night?
