Australian businesses will take centre stage in the global innovation and investment arena as #CapTech2026 returns for its fifth year.
The forum is designed to connect senior investors and policy makers with business leaders and project innovators from around the world.
Hosted by SIPBN (Sydney Investors Professionals Business Network), the event will bring together representatives from eight key sectors, with a focus on innovation, investment and industry transformation.
Organiser and CEO of #CapTech Sarah Morgan said the summit was aimed at positioning Australia as a hub for future-focused industries wanting to make connections that matter.
“Many of the most valuable commercial opportunities never appear in the public domain,” Ms Morgan said.
“#CapTech2026 has been designed to provide delegates with access to quality conversations and connections that extend beyond traditional networking.
“#CapTech offers a powerful platform for strategic growth, capital flow, and cross-border collaboration in a highly curated environment.
“This year we have more than 20 companies represented, with over 300 global investors and business leaders and 50 world-class speakers.
“The benefits are unparalleled for global investors looking for high-calibre networking, business acquisitions and prospecting, and likewise for businesses wanting strategic partnerships and visibility.”
This year, the summit features an exclusive invitation-only private dinner, offering selected guests an additional opportunity to build high-level relationships and explore potential partnerships.
ESSSuper Chief Investment Officer Daniel Selioutine said last year’s #CapTech gave him the opportunity to meet international peers, representatives from the Australian government and emerging leaders “in a focused and thoughtful setting.”
“The discussions were practical, the networking was substantive, and the format was effective,” Mr Selioutine said.
