The Inner West is packed with founders, builders and tinkerers doing genuinely interesting things…so whether you're mid-build or still sketching on a napkin, we want to hear what you're working on.
Welcome to the Inner West Tech Advisory Committee.
Who we are
The Inner West Tech Advisory committee is a collaboration between Inner West Startups & Tech and experienced professionals from government, industry and the not-for-profit sector.
We bring together people who regularly review products, proposals, business cases and technology solutions, providing practical feedback to help startups refine their ideas and better understand what potential customers are looking for.
What we do
Organisations receive countless approaches from businesses offering new products and services. Many are genuinely innovative, but often the pitch doesn’t clearly communicate the problem being solved, the value being delivered, or why the solutions stands out.
We help startups strengthen their proposition by testing ideas, challenging assumptions and providing practical feedback from a range of customer perspectives, including government, commercial and community sectors.
Our goal is to help founders better understand thier market, sharpen their messaging and improve their readiness to engage with potential customers, partners and investors.
How it works
You submit your product, service or idea using the form below.
Our panel reviews applications, and may invite selected applicants to present their concept and receive constructive feedback from experience practitioners and decision makers.
What we are not
We are not a procurement panel, investment committee or purchasing body.
Participation does not guarantee funding, procurement opportunities, contracts, partnerships or endorsements. The purpose of the panel is to provide independent feedback, insights and guidance to help startups improve their offering and approach to market.
