The 2023 Innovation Showcase is Canberra Innovation Network's biggest event of the year! It offers a unique opportunity to recognise the amazing individuals in the innovation and startup ecosystem, highlighting their successes and inspiring even bigger goals for the new year!
At this year’s Innovation Showcase, Canberra startups will go head-to-head in a high-intensity pitching competition judged by YOU.
Feeling creative? Enter the poster competition and you could win $500! Immerse yourself in the innovation community by visiting stalls hosted by our partners, and get hands-on with a range of interactive displays run by real-life innovators!
This year the theme is Shaping Tomorrow Today.
Working with innovation everyday, we are lucky enough to see first-hand how local entrepreneurs are moving and shaking their industries. The projects and businesses that come through the doors at 1 Moore Street are continuously innovating to make the future more clever, connected and creative.
Innovation knows no bounds, and we extend a warm invitation for everyone to help shape tomorrow today.
Located just 5 minutes from the City and along the Light Rail Line, this year's event will be held at Thoroughbred Park.
We would like to thank the ACT Government, our Foundation Members, Gold Partners, and Education Partner for their ongoing support. Canberra's innovation community could not exist as it does without this collaboration.
