Get ready to hit the court at the STARTUP BALL [ SYD ], the ultimate intersection of high-growth entrepreneurship and competitive basketball. Hosted at the premier Hoops Capital East in Moore Park—the very facility where the Sydney Kings practice—this event brings together founders, investors, and operators for a high-energy morning of sport and connection.
Beyond the game, this is a premier networking opportunity designed to foster real relationships within the ANZ startup scene. Attendees will participate in quick introductions and professional networking sessions to bridge the gap between the court and the boardroom. Please arrive prepared with a reversible jersey or two different colored shirts to participate in the run.
We are proud to have Hyper, an Australian startup studio, as our session sponsor. Their team provides end-to-end support for founders, from initial design to investor readiness, and Managing Director Sam Cust will be in attendance to connect with the community. Don't miss this chance to build your network while staying active.
