CORE Connect Adelaide - Ditch the Deck: Build It & Bring It

No slides. No sales pitches. Just live builds.

Welcome to Ditch the Deck: Build It & Bring It - CORE Innovation Hub’s event dedicated purely to proof of build.

We’re stripping away the 20-page PowerPoints, polished pitch scripts, and theoretical concepts. Instead, we’re putting real software, hardware, and raw prototypes on stage to show what happens when talented people actually build.

Whether it’s a custom AI agent, a working web application, or physical hardware, every presenter gets a live demo slot to show what they built, how they built it, and why it works - followed by an interactive builder Q&A.

How the Night Works

We run in fast-paced demo blocks to keep energy high and tech moving:

• 3 Live Demos: 5-minute raw, unfiltered product demonstrations.

• Builder Q&A: A 15-minute collaborative panel with all 3 creators, diving into the tech stack, build process, and practical lessons learned.

• Repeat: We take a short breather and move into the next round of builds. 1 hour max, followed by networking and a chance to meet and chat with founders, likeminded builders and those in the ecosystem.
