𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗮 𝘄𝗲𝗲𝗸! West Tech Fest 2025 brought amazing crowds and huge energy across Perth, Fremantle and Rottnest Island, with sellout events at West Tech Women, Wadjemup, Freo Startup Fest and First Nations House + our biggest West Tech Main yet.

Across the five days, we explored the future of tech, sustainability, capital, creativity and leadership. From AI and quantum convergence to green finance, climate innovation, circularity, commercialisation and human-centred leadership - the conversations were bold, future-focused and deeply inspiring.

But what truly defined the week were the connections - founders meeting investors, unexpected collaborations forming, partnerships taking shape and real deal flow moving through the ecosystem. The kind of momentum you can only create when this community comes together...

Big ideas, bold voices and powerful relationships - once again proving why West Tech Fest is Australia’s longest running, and most loved, innovation festival.

From turquoise shores to purpose-led conversations, West Tech Wadjemup brought the heart of the festival to Rottnest Island! And what a perfect day it was to do so…

We explored how to reuse, regenerate and reassess the way we build businesses, with powerful discussions on green finance, sustainable infrastructure, circular design and impact at scale.

And then we closed it all out with an *iconic* sunset after party.

✨ West Tech Women delivered!

We kicked off West Tech Fest yesterday with a sold out room full of founders, investors and emerging leaders, for a morning of honest conversations, powerful insights and meaningful connection.

Kellie Hush set the tone with a powerful keynote on authenticity in leadership, followed by a standout panel featuring Kirstin Hunter, Roo Harris, Eva Stewart and Pauline Fetaui, moderated by Pia Turcinov. Together, they unpacked why lived experience belongs at the centre of decision-making and innovation.

We came for inspiration, and left with clarity, confidence and community.

Here’s a look at the moments that made it unforgettable.
