We’re excited to announce the launch of Spacecubed's Office Hours Program in Western Sydney. The Office Hours Program connects startup founders, aspiring entrepreneurs, and individuals with experienced industry professionals, investors, and advisors through personalised 1 on 1 mentorship sessions.

Through these sessions, founders are able to discuss what they’re working on, get feedback on specific business challenges and discover new opportunities. The program serves as a platform to foster meaningful connections and facilitate open conversations between likeminded individuals.

City of Parramatta is a proud sponsor of the Spacecubed Office Hours program. Through this partnership, we’re able to foster collaboration, mentorship, and knowledge-sharing to create a thriving startup ecosystem in Western Sydney.

“The City of Parramatta is again leading the way, becoming the first location in New South Wales to host the Spacecubed program," said City of Parramatta Lord Mayor Cr Sameer Pandey. “The Western Sydney Startup Hub is where you can incubate a great idea and get specialist advice on where to next. Parramatta’s small business sector and start-ups are at the cutting edge of innovation and I encourage anyone with a bold vision to come and share it at Spacecubed.”
