### This is how Fishburners is opening 2026.

AI is no longer just a trend.

AI is the core infrastructure of the next decade’s most successful startups.

At Fishburners, we aren’t just watching the shift, we are providing the platform for the founders actually building it.
Following the momentum of the Female Founder Pitch Night, we are gathering the highest-signal AI startups in the country for a night of technical excellence, commercial ambition, and direct investor engagement.
On May 28th, Fishburners is hosting the AI Pitch Night. This is a deliberate showcase of the founders moving beyond the hype to build real, scalable, and defensible AI companies.
This night is about founders who are building.
Founders who are raising.
Founders who are ready to be seen, backed, and taken seriously.

### What this event is

A curated pitch night hosted by Fishburners, Australia’s largest startup community, in partnership with Chartered Accountants ANZ, Vanta, and HubSpot.
The best Australian AI startups will pitch in front of a room specifically vetted for high-level investors, operators, and ecosystem leaders.
This is not a night for judging from the sidelines, it is a night for backing the future of Australian tech.
Come and see real founders, real companies, and real opportunity.
