Introducing KITT by Gild Grow, a marketing system designed to change how businesses approach growth.

No generic AI recommendations. No dashboards to decode. Just meaningful insights to help marketing teams, agencies and CEOs make smarter decisions and prioritise the actions that drive growth.

As Shane Graham, CMO of Gild Grow, puts it:
“For too long, business owners have been in the dark with their marketing. Growth is a partnership, and the right system should empower everyone to make the right calls, take the right actions and see their business grow.”

Built from real-world frustrations with disconnected platforms and unclear priorities, KITT is here to change the way businesses approach their growth strategy.

Stay tuned as Shane breaks down who KITT is for and how it can transform the way you make critical growth decisions.

Can I afford to grow?

It’s a question many founders are asking — and often one that’s harder to answer than it looks.

At Spark Festival’s Startup Growth Lab, founders can bring their biggest financial question to experienced CFOs and work through the numbers, assumptions and decisions that sit behind it.

Questions might include:
- Can I afford my next hire?
- Are we actually making money on each sale?
- How much runway do we really have?
- Are we charging enough?
- Do we need investment to fund our next stage?
- What would an investor question in our financial model?

Amit Shah, Partner at The Gild Group, will join Wayne Wanders and Michelle Kvello for an interactive founder finance workshop and CFO Q&A.

📍 UTS Startups, Ultimo
🗓️ 23 September
⏰ 4:00–4:50pm

Come with a decision you're facing. Leave with a clearer way to approach it.

2026 was a big BIGSOUND as always. A great mix of panels, a large range of talented artists and plenty of insightful meetings. It’s always a pleasure to be up in sunny QLD spending some time with our music industry colleagues.

Band highlights for us were Any Young Mechanic, The Stimpies, Public Figures, Salty, Liquid Zoo, Indigo Blaze, Queenie and Divers
