Hunter Innovation Festival

The Hunter Innovation Festival was born from the rib of the Australian Innovation Festival that started in 2002. This festival was built on the foundations of the four Cs – creativity, connections, collaboration, and commercialisation.
For HIF that started in 2007, the same foundations remain fundamental to embracing an innovative culture and it showcases these concepts through the annual event.
It aims is to contribute to fostering even greater connections and opportunities for startups, scaleups, businesses and organisations that realise that innovation is a priority in workplace practices.
