About Fishburners' Pitch Nights

For those of you who have never attended a Friday Pitch Night, here's a bit of context! Once a month, on a Friday night from 5pm, Fishburners opens its doors to host Shark Tank-style, Friday Night Pitches. We are a not-for-profit community of entrepreneurs that are dedicated to growing tech startups - and this is Australia's largest, most regular event in the ecosystem.

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 pitch night kicks off at 5:30 pm! Grab a drink and watch these fantastic founders put it all on the table!
