About the Event
Australia's #1 event for Mums in Business
The AusMumpreneur Conference and Awards are dedicated to supporting and elevating Australian mums in business. This is a powerful opportunity for women from across the country to come together to grow their visibility, promote their businesses, connect with like-minded mumpreneurs, and celebrate the success of the best and brightest in the industry.
In 2026, we have reimagined the experience into one powerful and streamlined day — thoughtfully designed to deliver high-impact learning, meaningful connection, and a world-class awards celebration, all within a format that better supports the realities of business and family life.
The nationally recognised AusMumpreneur Awards have been running since 2009, shining a spotlight on outstanding achievements in business, product development, innovation, and customer service. Over the years, the awards have become a respected platform for recognising women who are building exceptional businesses while raising families and creating meaningful impact in their communities.
The AusMumpreneur Top 100 Awards Gala Dinner — an elegant and vibrant evening honouring the Top 100 finalists across our 10 major award categories. This is where excellence is recognised at the highest level, bringing together a curated room of inspiring women in business to celebrate, connect, and acknowledge extraordinary achievement.
Our previous AusMumpreneur of the Year winners and finalists have gone on to be featured in leading national media including 60 Minutes, Sunrise, The Today Show, Today Tonight, Cosmopolitan, Herald Sun, and The Australian — opening doors to new opportunities, partnerships, and growth.
Whether you join us for the conference, the awards, or step into the full VIP experience, attending this event is your opportunity to be inspired, to be seen, and to surround yourself with a community that truly understands your journey.
So… is this your year to step forward and shine?

More than just a conference, this is a space to connect with the industry’s best and brightest — women who have built thriving businesses while navigating family life. You’ll meet potential collaborators, mentors and lifelong friends, and open the door to opportunities you may never have expected.
Across a range of hands-on workshops and expert sessions, you’ll learn how to accelerate growth, strengthen your brand and create greater impact in your business. You’ll leave with a notebook full of actionable ideas, renewed motivation and a clear plan for your next steps.
