DeepTech Investor Evening
This is an invite‑only event for investors interested in frontier opportunities in DeepTech. Register your interest today. Approval Required.
Australia’s DeepTech ecosystem is growing quickly, yet there are still too few opportunities for investors to meet, compare notes, and explore frontier technologies together.
DeepTech — spanning robotics, space, defence, climate tech, biotech and more — is accelerating as a core investment theme across the country. The 2025 Australian Startup Report (by Folklore & Cut Through Ventures) highlights DeepTech as one of the fastest‑rising categories for both founder activity and investor allocation.
The GXE & Barker Street Ventures Investor Showcase is designed to bring this investor community together.
This event reconnects investors across the ecosystem and creates space for real conversations about how we fund the next generation of companies. Ventures building the technologies that strengthen national capability and advance global priorities such as climate transition.
Agenda:
- 5:30PM Doors open
- 6:00PM Fireside Chat
- 6:30PM Short 5-min pitch from featured companies
- 6:45PM Networking till close
