The Winners’ Day, the think tank
The morning after, the winners think.
The day after the Gala belongs to the winners. For the Entrepreneur Awards it is a think tank: the winners at one table with named business leaders, each bringing a real problem. It is never for sale.
You built it. Come and collect.
Entries open 1 October 2026. The first live nights are Melbourne, Thursday 17 June 2027.

Two of four
Who sits at the table.
Winning is the only way in. The think tank is a room for the people who won, and the people who can help them.
A sponsor can name the session. A sponsor never takes a seat for an entrant.
By right
The winners
Every entrepreneur country winner, and nobody who did not win. A seat cannot be bought.
Named
Business leaders
Named business leaders lead the table.
Never a seat
A naming sponsor
A sponsor’s name can go on the session and its recorded content. Never a seat for an entrant.
Three of four
Golf places can be bought. The think tank is never for sale.
One morning after, two programmes, two days that are different on purpose. A golf day is a better day with more of the night on the course. A think tank only works if no seat at the table was bought, which is why none ever is.
