What is the Startmate Accelerator?
- Put simply, they help you grow your early stage company much, much faster. You’ll spend 12 weeks laser-focused on your customer, building the best product and setting the foundations you need for exponential growth.
- Founders/peers who will become some of the most important people in your founding journey.
- Mentors who can unlock you, connect you, define your focus and keep you on track.
- Clear and simple investment terms – $120k, no hooks or surprises – and a bulletproof path to raising.
- Access to thousands of pre-vetted, talented operators hungry to join a high-growth startup.
Startmate Invests
- AUD $120k on an AUD $1.5m post-money valuation for founders who have not raised at least AUD $200k previously; or
- AUD $120k, matching the last valuation for founders who have previously raised at least AUD $200k at that valuation.
Criteria
- The goal is to find and fund the most ambitious early-stage founders in ANZ. This means they invest in pre-product founders. Generally, the early-stage founders usually meet at least one of the following criteria:
- Have a problem they want to solve & are ready to go full-time
- Started building an MVP or proof of concept
- Have built an MVP or proof of concept
- Have paying customers
- Most of the program is virtual, with the exception of Week 0 which is in-person and held in either Melbourne or Sydney, and Demo Day, also in-person in Melbourne or Sydney.
- This means you can participate from anywhere in the world. However, it’s worth noting that they have designed the program to be especially time-zone friendly to Australia and New Zealand.
