Join us for the Innovation Central Canberra Summer Showcase — a celebration of student innovation, industry collaboration, and real‑world problem solving.

Over the past 10 weeks, students have worked alongside industry and academic partners to develop practical solutions addressing real challenges across critical sectors. During this showcase, attendees will hear project pitches that highlight each challenge, the development journey, and the value these solutions are now creating.

This year’s program features projects delivered in partnership with:

• BAI Communications — Private 5G network testing
• Industry Capability Network — Cyber compliance tools for SMEs
• National Industry Innovation Network (NIIN) — Digital transformation initiatives
• Merewyn Partners — Acoustic privacy protection technologies
• Cisco — Security uplift for Australian Government

The showcase will also feature the “Walk & Give” solution, developed by ICC students during the Cisco Live MasterTech Hackathon sponsored by Coles Group. This project reimagines the in‑store shopping experience by rewarding customers for their time and engagement.

Following the presentations, guests are invited to stay for networking and light refreshments, with the opportunity to meet the project teams and connect with industry partners.
