AND EACH OTHER
THE CONVERSATIONS WE NEED TO HAVE, WITH THE VOICES WE NEED TO HEAR FROM
_SOUTHSTART EMERGENCE* is Australia's leading Innovation Festival. Since our inception, we have gathered humans representing over $30 Billion in venture funding, hosted thousands of founders, investors, creatives, leaders & other curious souls - and attracted several of the world's leading minds to help our audience grow - exponentially. We don’t give lip service to purpose. We help define and refine it. For ourselves and for humanity. Join us as we bring together the curious, the daring and the brilliant to share their visions for a future we deserve.
