SUMMARY:Accelerating sports technology & innovation in WA
DESCRIPTION:This panel session explores the theme of accelerating sports technology innovation in Australia (and more specifically WA)\, with a focus on funding and support programs for startups. \nAustralia has developed one of the leading sports innovation ecosystems in the world – from world-class facilities and major sports events\, to leading sports science\, sports systems & pathway programs. Despite this\, Australia’s sportstech investment market has historically been immature\, meaning that capital raising and support for startups have been challenging and often opportunistic. However\, the landscape is changing. In the last few years the industry is starting to attract a pool of sophisticated investors\, there has been the emergence startup programs that better cater for the specific needs of the sportstech and health tech sectors\, and government is taking a greater lead on supporting local startup communities. \nIn the panel session we will hear insights from key stakeholders supporting the next-generation of innovators – from experienced early-stage investors\, startup program leads\, government\, researchers to founders that have raised investment. We will also explore the emergence of Western Australia’s early-stage investment funding landscape and hear from key stakeholders leading the local eco-system. \nPanel Members:\n* Derek Gerrard – Director at Purpose Ventures\n* Oliver Bazzanni – Mentor / Investor at Startmate & Program Designer at Australian Clinical Entrepreneur Program\n* Will Poot – Co-Founder at Omni Biotech\n* Sandra Draper – Manager Innovation\, Department of Jobs\, Tourism\, Science & Innovation at State Government of Western Australia \nModerator – Craig Hill – Co-Founder at Australian Sports Technologies Network & Advisor in ASTN Accelerator and ASTN-GSIC Pre-Accelerator Programs \n

SUMMARY:FEnEx CRC Decarbonising energy exports: progress and prospects
DESCRIPTION:Join us for two full days of content\, knowledge-sharing and fun as we review and explore the technology and ideas emerging to support Australia’s efforts to remain competitive in energy exports. \nThe theme this year is centred around progress and future prospects – because both as a nation and a CRC we have made progress and its important to reflect on the successes and lessons learned. As the pathways towards cleaner models of operating become evident\, it’s important that FEnEx CRC’s research focus be updated accordingly. \nAlong with some of Australia’s most forward-thinking technologists\, academics and advocates\, we are coming together to discuss how we plan to decarbonise some of our hard to abate industries whilst maintaining our highly-effective economic industries. \nConference Program \nThe conference program will feature a range of speakers presenting on the latest research\, ideas\, and project developments that support the challenge of energy decarbonisation in the transition to a cleaner world. The program offers the opportunity to learn about the latest policy initiatives\, technological advances and societal shifts that are shaping the energy transition landscape. \nPoster Forum \nThe project poster forum is an opportunity for attendees to explore the cutting-edge research projects being undertaken within the FEnEx CRC. The posters offer a chance for researchers to showcase their work and engage with fellow attendees in informal conversations. This year in response to previous requests\, there will be a dedicated poster session with refreshments at the end of day 1. Additional engagement will be available during conference breaks.

SUMMARY:Branducopia Launch Event – Taking the world by brandstorm!
DESCRIPTION:Join us in-person to celebrate the launch of Branducopia\, a beautifully designed digital and print publication that acts as your experiential guidebook to branding. Included is a Youtube and Podcast channel that helps bridge the gap between theory and application by equipping business owners with inspiring and practical resources on all facets of business through the lens of branding. \nWith Branducopia\, we have created a place of business education that is generously shared through the lens of branding and based on storytelling and first-hand experience so business owners can create stand-out brands they are proud of! \nIn economic development and expansion\, differentiation depends on co-development; no entity\, natural or economic\, evolves in isolation. Nor do brands develop in isolation. Therefore\, it takes a village to build a brand. At this launch event\, along with celebrating\, we will be having a couple of guest speakers that have been featured in Branducopia share their expertise with an opportunity for you to network with other businesses. \nTo find out more about Branducopia\, head to the website branducopia.com or check out our socials:
