Prime 18
ON Prime 18 kicked off in August 2025, with Showcase & networking events running across Australia throughout October.
These events shine a spotlight on the progress of research teams as they share how their ideas have evolved through the ON Prime journey — from early-stage concepts to opportunities with real-world impact.
If you are curious about a team or would like to see what the ON Prime Program is about, register to attend a Showcase & networking event near you via the ON Prime program webpage and sign up to the ON newsletter to stay up to date on future rounds and success stories.
