Spark Festival

Spark Festival is a thirteen day program of events and activities which showcases, supports and strengthens the vibrant startup and innovation ecosystem that exists in Sydney, and across all of of NSW. The 2017 Spark Festival Program will run from Wednesday October 11 through to Tuesday October 24. Most of the events on the program are organised and produced by the community, for the community. With such a large program (100 events in 2016 with more than 6000 attendees!), Spark is an initiative which represents an unprecedented level of collaboration between startups, corporates, education and all levels of government. Spark Festival had inclusiveness and diversity built in from the start, and this shines through in our program: alongside events for people already working in the startup sector, there are numerous opportunities for those who are curious to find out what it's all about to take a peek and see where their skills might find a new home.
