What a great evening at the recent at the Curtin Accelerate Demo Night! As proud Curtin alumni and past winners, it was fantastic to see the incredible talent and innovative spirit of the newest cohort.

Curtin Accelerate is a launchpad for innovation, equipping WA’s brightest with the tools, mentorship, and confidence to take their ideas to market quickly and effectively.

The Demo Night was a true showcase of creativity, ambition, and the power of entrepreneurial thinking and a powerful demonstration of Western Australia's bright future in the innovation and tech space.

As previous winners, we know how instrumental this program has been for VetChip, providing us with pivotal support and guidance towards our vision of a world of animals living their healthiest, happiest lives through the use of our revolutionary smart animal monitoring technology.

Seeing these new bright minds pitch their groundbreaking ideas and solutions reminds us of where we started and how far we've come from turning an idea into reality.

To the latest talented Curtin University Accelerate 2025 cohort – we wish you the very best as you embark on your entrepreneurial journeys!

VetChip was thrilled to take part in the recent Fireside Chat on Innovation, hosted by the Fogarty Foundation. It was an incredible opportunity to share our knowledge and experiences with an inspiring group of UWA Fogarty Scholars—the future leaders of law, healthcare, engineering, technology, and business.

Our CTO, Zyrus Khambatta shared the stage alongside Fogarty Foundation CEO and event host Elizabeth Knight alongside Irene Kuo GAICD and Oliver Bazzani for an engaging and thought-provoking panel discussion, exploring the power of innovation, leadership, and navigating change across industries, inspiring the next generation of UWA Fogarty Scholars to think beyond traditional career pathways.

Congratulations, to the Fogarty Foundation on the launch of Ripple, a world-class leadership accelerator program designed to equip UWA Fogarty Scholars with the skills, experiences, and networks needed to drive meaningful change and economic growth in WA.

A huge thank you to the Fogarty Foundation, UWA, and the event organisers for creating this space for meaningful dialogue. We are excited to see how these Scholars apply their leadership, creativity, and innovation to shape WA’s future!
