"What a fabulous year in Innovation Cluster's CONNECT Hub. This program is unique and challenging and allows participants to work to the level of their business. The collaboration and networking was invaluable, as was the ability to work with a skilled and specialised mentor throughout the year. Innovation Cluster is uniquely positioned in the business world to facilitate this program and I was hugely honoured to be part of the hub."

I am immensely grateful for the opportunity to be a part of the HARVEST accelerator program. We have done several accelerator programs now and I can say the insights, mentorship, and connections we gained during our involvement have been the best we've received and invaluable for our growth and development. The HARVEST program has played a pivotal role in shaping our understanding of the industry and refining our business strategies. We truly appreciate the support and resources provided by the program and it's absolutely been the best program we've participated in.

"When applying to join this free program I was doubtful that there would be more than $10,000 of value, but nevertheless was keen to go ahead and see what. On reflection I would say there was many multiples of this value created for our little business, that will grow year by year as the enunciated and learnt principles are expanded on by my team!"

"It's been fantastic to join in with other businesses from around WA to showcase the great innovation and energy that exists to grow WA's economy and connections. Programs like this are critical to building local networks and businesses in our vast state and across the distances we face between regional communities and global markets."

You held such a great space for us all, and given the challenges afoot, you persevered and continued to support us all. We're all excited and energised for the opportunities we're now facing, and will be encouraging every business that's looking for similar, to jump on board the next program.

Congratulations to Innovation Cluster for delivering such a well organised and successful event showcasing a diversity of entrepreneurs - from seaweed for bioplastics and animal feed, to sustainable supply chains and traceability, to creative tech for sustainability. The level of expertise, passion and drive was truly impressive. The future is looking bright for innovation in WA!”
