What do you get when you put an investor and three start-ups on a dating show? The Perfect Match! ❤️

This year at Innovate Western Sydney, we added a fun twist to a high-stake pitching session by reimagining it as a match-making experience between investors and start-ups. Investors challenged our founders with the ultimate question, “if I gave you $500,000 tomorrow, what would you achieve in the next 12 months?”

It wasn’t just entertaining for the investors and start-ups but it was fully interactive for the audience too, who voted in a live poll for their favourite pitch. All in all, this pitch session stood out from the usual format while still highlighting the real considerations that shape investor–start-up conversations.

Thank you to our investors for taking the time to be part of the session and for providing well-informed insights and a big thank you to our start-ups for bringing their energy, ideas, and bold visions to the stage

✨ Innovate Western Sydney 2025 ✨

It was an incredible experience to co-host this year’s Innovate Western Sydney showcase with University of Sydney, with support from our amazing partners across Western Sydney. 🎉

The energy on the day was electrifying, from sharing stories and knowledge to building new connections. It was a true celebration of Western Sydney’s diverse and thriving innovation ecosystem.

It was inspiring to see entrepreneurs, researchers, industry partners and government come together with a shared purpose: celebrating Western Sydney and the bright future we are creating together.

Thank you to everyone who joined us and an even bigger thank you to all those who supported the event and made the day such a success.
