    Applications are de-identified, and reviewed confidentially by a panel of judges. Some questions may ask for supporting documents or additional details to help us assess your eligibility and needs.

  • Additional opportunities

  • Last year, we hosted a networking event that brought together pass recipients to connect, take part in photo opportunities, and enjoy products from social enterprises like Yaala Sparkling and The Parenthood. Together we also selected Whatsapp as a channel to create online space where recipients could stay connected — over 1,500 messages exchanged, fostering collaboration, learning and support.

    We’re exploring ways to offer these opportunities again. Let us know what you'd be interested in.

  • Would you like to attend an in-person networking event during SXSW Sydney 2025? Spaces may be limited depending on the venue secured.*
  • Would you like to join a community chat (e.g. WhatsApp) with other pass recipients?This would be a space to connect before, during and after SXSW Sydney, share learnings, and support each other.*

  • If you would be interested in collaborating with Social Enterprise Australia on anything else (e.g., Campaigns or storytelling opportunities, providing your products/services, etc), please reach out to hello@socialenterpriseaustralia.org.au.
