Join the FB IDEAs Hub
The FB IDEAs Incubator and Innovation Hub is a place for ideas, industry connections and emerging businesses to grow in Fishermans Bend. Located within walking distance of the future Fishermans Bend Innovation Precinct, the FB IDEAs Hub provides practical workspaces and the opportunity to join a community of innovators and be part of the growing Fishermans Bend innovation ecosystem.
We are looking for emerging businesses, innovative projects and aligned community groups to join us.
Find out more and submit an online application to be part of our growing community.
Become a Property Partner
We are seeking aligned property partners who are passionate about investing in the future of Fishermans Bend. Our priority is to match innovative projects with strategic landlords who have under-utilised space.
From hard-stands to office space to under-utilised corners of an already occupied factory - we are on the hunt for all kinds of space for a variety of different projects that can be tailored to align with landlord requirements.
If you are interested to partner with us, contact Bec McHenry, our Property Partnerships Lead.
Support our Projects
We have a portfolio of innovative projects to get involved in, and many more in the pipeline. If you are interested in collaborating with FB IDEAs to support a project(s) by providing in-kind or financial support - or maybe posing a problem or challenge to invite our ecosystem of innovators to try solve, we’d love to hear from you.
Reach out to Kate Spencer, Partnerships, Networking and Engagement Lead.
Pitch a Project
If you have a project idea to experiment / demonstrate / pilot / implement in Fishermans Bend then we’d love to know how we can help. Ways we can support your project include brokering connections to industry partners and stakeholders, helping to access a site in Fishermans Bend and/or providing grant funding.
We develop projects through an ongoing refinement and development process rather than a Yes/No grant and application cycle. Our aim is to be a responsive and active partner capable of responding to opportunities quickly and developing momentum when the opportunity arises.
