About the Future Anything National Grand Final 2022

In The Grand Final is the culmination of Future Anything’s Activate 2022 program.

The event was generously supported by Major Partners Advance Queensland and the Office of the Queensland Chief Entrepreneur, Bronze Partners Blackbird and Xero and a host of epic organisations who contributed prizes to support the young entrepreneurs. Read more about the National Grand Final here.
