Global Voices on a Local Stage.

We don’t do average. One of the defining features of B.I.T.E Business Conference is our commitment to securing keynote speakers who regularly present on international stages - for global brands, high-level summits, and tech giants. Because big thinking should never be limited to big cities.

Local Brilliance, Centre Stage.

Alongside our headliners, we also celebrate homegrown success. Each year, we feature a Local Business Panel that showcases stories, lessons, and insights from the Peninsula’s most exciting businesses. In 2026, this panel will be hosted by Katherine Cooper, Leader of Economic Development at Mornington Peninsula Shire.

If you'd like to be considered for the 2026 panel, expressions of interest are open now.
