To celebrate NAIDOC week, we'll be hosting a pitch night with startups run by Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander founders.

If you would like to pitch, please apply ASAP here. Otherwise, we'd appreciate it if you could send this opportunity across to anybody you know who would be perfect for this night!

Please note that we have limited in-person tickets available (to allow for proper social distancing), so get in quick. Networking begins at 5pm, and the pitches themselves kick off at 5.30pm, for those streaming in virtually. If you are feeling unwell, please do not attend our event in person.

For those of you who have never attended a Friday Pitch Night, here's a bit of context! Every Friday night from 5pm, Fishburners opens its doors to host Shark Tank-style, Friday Night Pitches. We are a non for profit community of entrepreneurs that is dedicated to growing tech startups - and this is Australia's largest, most regular event in the ecosystem.

Our $10 entry price is directed back into the Fishburners community and covers your pizza, beer, wine, and nonalcoholic beverages for the evening. The ticket booking fee will also be put toward providing scholarships to close the gap for Indigenous students.

If you're looking for inspiration to start a business, are keen to learn some pitch tips, or just want to find out what startups are new in Sydney, this is for you. It's a great event for current entrepreneurs or anyone interested in entrepreneurship but not sure where to start.

The event schedule for Friday Night Pitches is as follows:

• 5PM: Networking & drinks
• 5:30PM: Pitches begin. Grab a seat!
• 6:30PM-7PM (approx.): Networking
• 7PM: Event concludes
