Expect: • Honest conversations about what’s actually working • Practical insights from founders building in real time • Curated collisions with people who understand the journey • Energy, momentum and clarity without the startup theatre Because great companies aren’t built in isolation. They’re built in rooms like this. Tickets Paid. Limited. Intentionally curated. StartupHaus is designed for founders, early operators, investors and ecosystem builders who care about: • Building real companies • Making better decisions faster • Surrounding themselves with ambitious people This isn’t a demo day. It’s a high-signal room for people serious about what’s next. Seats are capped to protect the quality of conversation. Powered By Hosted by LiveHaus – Where energy meets ROI. PS: It’s going to be one powerful founder night. We’re creating a space where founders, early operators and startup builders learn the way humans always have: Face to face. Sharing stories. Debating ideas. Laughing. Grabbing food and drinks. Because great companies aren’t built in isolation. Before webinars. Before Zoom. Before AI. In an AI era, we’re bringing human learning back. Because the best growth still happens when humans meet humans. 🔥 Check a glimpse of what happened last time when we brought humans together in one Haus: • LiveHaus Season 1 | Recap Video 1 • LiveHaus Season 1 | Recap Video 2 • LiveHaus Season 1 | Recap Video 3 • LiveHaus Season 1 | Recap Video 4 Getting to the Venue Venue: AWS Sydney Office, 2/26 Park St, Sydney NSW 2000, Australia Public Transport (recommended) • The venue is within easy walking distance of Town Hall Station and Museum Station, both on the CBD's main train lines • Multiple bus routes run along George Street and Elizabeth Street, close by • Use the Transport NSW Journey Planner to plan the easiest route from your location Parking • Nearby options include Wilson Parking facilities around the CBD (check current locations via wilsonparking.com.au) • Secure Parking and other operators have several CBD car parks within a short walk • Limited street parking may be available nearby, subject to metered restrictions
