Upcoming Events in 2024

Monthly Social Catchups

Delivered on the third Wednesday of every month from 3pm- 5pm, the Innovate Moreton Bay Monthly Social Catchup provides the opportunity to surround yourself around likeminded thinkers & tinkers in an informal setting.

This is your opportunity to share your story and experience with others. You never know who you might meet. Keep up to date with relevant opportunities and events within the Regional Innovation Ecosystem and connect with others who may be able to assist in getting your idea to the next level. Grow your personal network regionally, nationally, and even internationally.

This event is free to attend, with no RSVP required.

Digital Leap Mentoring Program

In a world where technology is constantly evolving, staying ahead isn't just an advantage, it's a necessity. For small and medium enterprises, embracing technology is the cornerstone of growth and success. However, for those who don’t know where to start, taking the leap can be daunting.

We are looking for small businesses in the Moreton Bay region who would like to implement new technologies into their day-to-day operations, but just aren’t sure how to begin.

In this three-month long program, we will connect you with experts, resources and events to support your business into taking the digital leap.
