International Convention Centre Sydney (ICC Sydney), managed by ASM Global, convened Sydney tech and innovation talent at its Innovating Events Roundtable during SXSW Sydney this week to supercharge connections between emerging talent and event organisers.
The Sydney Startup Hub, University of Technology Sydney (UTS) Startups, Investment NSW’s Tech Central and Tech Council of Australia, alongside business events clients representing professional services, education and computing sectors, Startup CEOs and Business Events Sydney were represented at the event to discuss how ICC Sydney’s Legacy Program could create more trusted partnerships, successful activations and new startup concepts for events that could lead to increased opportunities for emerging talent through events.
The event also provided an opportunity for University of Technology Sydney (UTS) Robotics Institute students to observe, network and demonstrate their skills through a partnership project with ICC Sydney to enhance customer service support.
ICC Sydney General Manager, Adam Mather-Brown said the Roundtable reaffirmed ICC Sydney’s role in providing connections to power productivity and innovation.
“Being ‘More Than A Venue’ at ICC Sydney, we relish the opportunity to help enhance events and customer experiences that provide positive benefits into our local community. By amplifying our Legacy Program Tech and Innovation stream, we hope to be an incubator for tech solutions for our industry – fostering enhancements on site and providing connections to our innovation partners, allowing us to collectively drive greater productivity through ever better events,” Mather-Brown said.
