TICKETS


How much are tickets?

Ticket prices rise as we get closer to the conference, so it’s always a good idea to buy now! To find out what current ticket prices are, visit our Ticketing page. You may also want to keep an eye on any flash sales or group-buy deals by following our Facebook event page!

Why do tickets cost so much?

Tickets enable you to get full access to our conference, multiple stages, workshops, exhibitions, networking initiatives and exclusive afterparty events! Prices are also inclusive of 7% GST.

As a startup ourselves, we know that ticket prices like that are quite a commitment, so our doors (or rather, email inboxes) are always open. Drop us an email at [email protected] and perhaps we can work out something special for you and your team!

Are there investor tickets?

We had a dedicated pack for investors in 2015 and are looking to offer even more this year. Keen on one?
