What we’re about

The Objectives:
The Western Sydney Tech Innovators group aims to provide a local forum for Western Sydney communities to get informed about, participate in, and benefit from the current technological revolution led by advancements in Artificial Intelligence (e.g., ChatGPT, AI Agents and Automation, AI Art), Extended Reality technologies (e.g., Virtual Reality, Mixed Reality, Metaverse), and other emerging technologies. We also strive to address and mitigate potential negative impacts caused by these technologies, such as career disruption and deepfake scams.

Who should join:
Our main audience comprises innovators in the broadest sense - anyone creating new or improving existing ideas, products, services, artworks, or stories in their businesses or professional work, while also interested in applying the latest technologies to their processes.

We welcome not only startup founders and creatives who may be traditionally categorized as innovators but also individuals who want to stay informed and apply cutting-edge technologies in their businesses, projects, professional work, and personal lives.

Each month's event will highlight a specific topic, technology, and related use cases (e.g., Virtual Reality for education, AI for business owners, Generative AI for storytellers). Attendees can select topics and events that align with their personal interests.

What we advocate:

  • Digital Inclusion: We believe everyone should be able to benefit from the current technological revolution while being equipped to avoid potential negative consequences.
  • Responsible AI Practices: We promote the development and use of AI technologies that are safe, fair, and trustworthy, with the goal of empowering the community.
  • Hands-on Learning and Interactivity: We encourage active participation and practical, experiential learning to ensure meaningful engagement with new technologies.

This group is in partnership with the City of Parramatta Council, Western Sydney Startup Hub powered by Spacecubed, LaunchPad Western Sydney University and UNSW Founders.
