Startup Diwali Sydney

The number of South Asian tech founders in Australia has doubled and we want to celebrate South Asia's biggest festival of lights with the Sydney Startup and South Asian communities.

This Diwali, SAARI Collective is bringing us together so we can celebrate the festival of light with a whole room that showcases our brightness.

SAARI is taking over the private basement of The Grand Palace for a curated Diwali dinner with the founders, investors and operators who have made this a big year for Aussie tech and the South Asian community.

It has been a year in which South Asian founders cleaned up at the Finnies, closed a $65m raise, won major deals, stood up for and represented Australia at the UN in AI for Good, and Diwali is the right night to dress up and celebrate our wins together.

The dinner is curated to ensure a dynamic room that you'll never see again. With a full South Asian banquet, come dressed for the lal (red) carpet.

SAARI members get a discount. Seats are confirmed by approval, and once they're gone, they're gone.

Don't delay - grab your ticket to be in the room and get your Diwali outfit ready!
