Launching... FWD>FEST 27

Reconnect with those you met at FWD>FEST 26, relive the memories from May 2026 with the debut showing of the 2026 recap video AND help us kickstart the nine (9) month countdown to FWD>FEST 27!

From those that played a pivotal role in 2026, to those hearing about FWD>FEST 27 for the first time, all are welcome to celebrate the lead-up to one of Australia's leading Entrepreneurial and Innovation Festivals.

Based on the beautiful Sunshine Coast, FWD>FEST is a multi-day business festival for entrepreneurs and innovators and their support system.

It's a unique opportunity for entrepreneurs and innovators to meet on the beautiful Sunshine Coast and fast track their journey by connecting with others who also think differently, believe in creating something of value, and are prepared to ride the wave of highs and lows that invariably come with the territory.
 

FWD>FEST originated in 2022 when the team from Silicon Coast, based on the Sunshine Coast Queensland, dreamed of providing a platform for their world of entrepreneurs, innovators and supporters to come together and collaborate in an environment of support. For four years this dream has been a reality connecting thousands.

Join us on Tuesday 18th August 2026 as we officially launch FWD>FEST 27 and start to unwrap what delegates can expect in 2027!
