About Something Digital

Something Digital was created in 2018 to bring together Queensland’s digital community and strengthen our digital ecosystem.

Whilst technology is key to solving complex problems, it is the digital piece that transforms the technology into human-centred platforms which can be used, marketed and sold. Digital innovation is the bridge between technology and humanity.

Designed around 3 key pillars, Something Digital:
  • Strengthens digital capabilities within our offices, communities, schools and society
  • Enables organisations from across industries to collaborate
  • Showcases the great innovations happening right here, in our backyard
We achieve this by bringing together Queensland’s digital community throughout the year, culminating in the Something Digital festival in October.

So whether you are a founder, a CXO, a manager or a person who gets stuff done; in a startup, enterprise, small business, government department or academic body; fulfilling a tech, leadership, marketing or other role which leverages digital innovation, then we have something digital for you!

Who we are

Something Digital is created and curated by Bright Humans in collaboration with some of Brisbane's greatest digital minds.
At Bright Humans, we design outstanding human-centred experiences that build capabilities, inspire creativity and strengthen ecosystems.

Our superpower is our ability to build something from nothing. We create and curate knowledge-based experiences which brings people together for a little bit of magic ... and a lot of inspiration!

In our digital world today, human connection is at the base of all experiences. We view projects like Something Digital as an opportunity for industry and the general public to come together to listen to mind blowing speakers, play with the newest technology and generate questions on how we are engaging and stimulating the digital economy.
