Discover Eastbourne and discover digital
If you’re not familiar with Eastbourne, you might be wondering why the Sunshine Coast is hosting a digital conference. After all, isn’t it mainly a retirement haven? Think again! Eastbourne has transformed and the only thing over 100 here is our 10,000 Mbps fibre broadband speeds.
Eastbourne boasts a thriving digital sector and, over the next few years, we anticipate the digital sector to rival hospitality and tourism as one of the town’s flagship industries.
Enter Eastbourne DigiFest, the inaugural event of its kind, designed to showcase the town’s digital skills and creativity. Whether you’re a freelance professional or business owner in the digital sector, Eastbourne has everything you need, from robust business support to exceptional facilities for hybrid and co-working. And if you’re seeking a digital partner, you’ll discover competitive pricing that outshines city-based providers, alongside individuals who thrive by the sea and South Downs.
The Sunshine Coast is where work-life balance flourishes. We firmly believe Eastbourne is the best place to live, work, and play in the country. Entrepreneurial spirit thrives here; whenever a barrier to business arises, Eastbourne overcomes it. Then when the work day is done, you can shut the laptop, hit the beach, hike the South Downs, or catch a wave. The environment fosters creativity and offers a more affordable cost of living compared to “big city” life.
Eastbourne DigiFest beckons you to witness the vibrancy of our town, be inspired, learn something new, and discover our town and its digital ecosystem. Featuring talks, workshops, tours and an exhibition, come and see Eastbourne’s bubbling digital landscape firsthand.
