About this event

  • 5 hours

The Department of Tourism and Sport has partnered with Queensland innovation experts to ask them to help solve two big challenges for Queensland tourism!

  1. How can we enhance experiences at any stage/s of the travel consumer journey?
  2. How can we unlock workforce capabilities for Queensland’s tourism sector?

Join us to hear from the teams behind the three shortlisted proposals for each challenge (six in total), invited to pitch their project at this free, one-day event.

The judging panel will select a winning proposal for each challenge based on its innovation, feasibility, impact, and alignment with challenge objectives.

Each winner will receive grant funding of up to $100,000 to enable them to develop and pilot their proposed solution for 6 – 8 months.

This event will be held at The Precinct, Level 2/315 Brunswick St, Fortitude Valley QLD 4006.

If you would like to hear the latest innovative ideas for addressing the tourism industry's two challenges, register now for this free event.

Catering will be provided.

Advance Queensland have presented these two challenges to innovative small-to-medium enterprises based in Queensland as part of their Private Sector Pathways Program.
