Welcome Receptionand Opening Ceremony
The Opening Ceremony will be held on 11 January
2016. Our previous speakers included representatives
from UQ Business School, Brisbane City Council, RiverCity Labs, Red Hat and was followed by Q&A.
Company Visits and Wor kshopsThere will be allocated times for students to visit
different Brisbane companies. These visits will give
delegates a brief look into local organization's working
facilities , as well as greater insight into company’s
culture and the Australian work environment. This is a
great opportunity for future international recruitment
and developing brand engagement on an international
scale.
Workshops will be held throughout the hackathon
competition where you will learn about start-ups and
practice professional skills that will not only help you
in our competition, but also contribute to your own
entrepreneurial development.
Startup Contest & Mentoring
Towards the end of the week, we culminate to
‘Act Now!’ with a Hackathon Contest. The contest is
an 18-hour event that actively involves students to
practice lean startup techniques and to create a viable
business model. Prominent entrepreneurs including
Ken Huxley will be teaching and mentoring students
about lean startups, marketing strategies, financial
planning, team building, legal advice and much more.
Our mentors will challenge students to think abstractly
and push their entrepreneurial skills to the next level.
Held over 3 days, it facilitates networking, efficient
learning and circulation of ideas. Domestic studentsare invited to these events, allowing collaboration
of different minds from various countries to create
feasible ideas for launch. 12 teams of 6 will battle for
the ultimate prize. The two finalist teams will pitch in
front of venture capitalists and entrepreneurs for the
chance to win the grand prize, yet to be revealed.
Sponsor Fair
We value our gratitude to our sponsors, and thus
we will host a one hour sponsor fair for our delegates
to attend. This sponsor fair allows you to network with
Brisbane and Australia’s most prominent companies
and support networks for career development and
entrepreneurship.

There are three main networking events for students
and professionals to form lasting relationships outside

be held at the State Library of Queensland, where
speakers and entrepreneurs are able to meet both
domestic and international students. In addition, the
