We're thrilled to support and celebrate the enormous progress DDD Perth has made towards inclusively connecting the Perth tech community, supporting all those who can't normally attend or speak at a large tech conference, and look forward to helping attendees learn more about what it takes to build and launch startups of your own!

It's such a privilege to be able to run this conference and DDD Perth would love to acknowledge the traditional custodians of the land in which DDD is created, presented, and shared, the Whadjuk people of the Noongar Nation and their connections to land, sea and community. We pay our respect to their Elders past, present and emerging, and extend that respect to all Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples today.
