Spacecubed x CSIRO ON: Perth Innovation Connect
Join us for an evening bringing together founders, researchers, investors and ecosystem leaders from across Western Australia.
Hosted by Spacecubed in partnership with CSIRO’s ON Innovation Program, this Innovation Connect is designed to align the full spectrum of the innovation community, from early-stage ideas through to commercialisation and scale.
Hear from two founders sharing different pathways into innovation, including a university spin-out journey and a non-traditional founder story. Through honest insights into the highs, lows and lessons learned, you’ll gain a deeper understanding of what it takes to build and grow in WA.
The evening will also feature open 30-second pitches, giving attendees the opportunity to share what they’re working on, explore ideas, and connect with potential collaborators, customers and supporters.
Whether you’re building a startup, exploring research translation, supporting innovation or simply curious about the ecosystem, this is your chance to connect, learn and get involved.
