The winners announcement will be shared in the media release and the website will update the following day.

Additionally, everyone that attends will be separately invited to AWS Startups Breakfast with Champions on Wednesday 7 DEC from 8-9am in Abacus. However, there is limited capacity! 

Set in the stylish and Melbourne's iconic cafe – Abacus on Chapel St. in South Yarra, we bring to you the best people in business to talk all that jazz. This is an early start 8–9 am, but it's well worth it for the bottomless coffee and superb kitchen breakfast menu.
