West Tech Fest 2025
Client | West Tech Fest, Curtin University
Location | Wadjemup/Rottnest Island, Pan Pacific, Perth Convention & Exhibition Centre
December 2025 saw Known Associates Australia deliver West Tech Fest for the third consecutive year, bringing Australia’s longest running tech and innovation festival to life across Perth and Wadjemup!
The 2025 program activated the newly renovated Pan Pacific Perth, and the Perth Convention and Exhibition Centre, and marked a highly anticipated return to Pinky’s, Wadjemup. Being fire safe in WA, we did away with the term Fireside Chat and coined the term Beachside Chat, creating a truly West Australian experience, with a few quokkas making memorable guest appearances 🐾.
KA Director and internal Project Lead Tamara Cook says “Known Associates Australia is proudly the professional events team behind the festival’s signature events, connecting more founders, more investors, and more ideas than ever before.” Across multiple stages and standout venues, local startups engaged directly with global thought leaders and government, sparking meaningful conversations and long-term collaborations.
From city conference spaces to island sunsets, WTF 2025 built momentum, strengthened connections, and reinforced Western Australia’s position as a global innovation destination.
Thank you to the West Tech Fest team, speakers, partners, suppliers, and attendees who made WTF 2025 a standout. We’re already gearing up for 2026!
