At the Canberra Innovation Network, we couldn’t be any more proud of this community of entrepreneurs. For their achievements. For their ingenuity. For the way they’ve turned challenges into opportunities and absolutely thrived. The Innovation Showcase is our way to celebrate the hardworking innovation and startup community in Canberra, highlighting those achievements and inspiring even bigger goals for the new year.
It’s a fun and interactive afternoon, enabling the community to come together, share stories and get energised for the next year ahead.
At this year’s Innovation Showcase Canberra startups will go head-to-head in a live shark-tank style pitching competition judged live by YOU. You’ll have the opportunity to meet new people, learn about the exciting things that came out of 2022 and get a glimpse into what’s in store!
We interviewed the innovators that will be head lining the showcase this year and discussed the meaning of innovation, the future and the event!
Introducing Marcus Alexander from Syconic Cyber.
What are you pitching at the Innovation Showcase?
Security as a concern to Micro to Medium businesses.
If the sky is the limit, what is your ultimate goal?
To present and represent the veteran cyber community.
What has been the high of the year for you?
Being able to commit 100% into running our business, grow it from a Micro to Small, and take on veterans to encourage them into the workforce with purpose and confidence.
Clever, Connected & Creative. Which of these words do you most identify with and why?
Connected. We put a lot of trust into our friends, colleagues, and community, and for the most part they are the ones that help us to grow, learn, and give back to.
What does innovation mean to you?
Not remaining inside the box that we think we have been placed into.
