The innovation acceleration network

Where innovation accelerates.

One network built to move innovation faster — founders reaching grants and venture capital sooner, VCs and early-stage investors backing high-velocity opportunities earlier, universities launching their cohorts further, and government and business getting the solutions they need before the problem gets worse.

One network · Five sides

Whichever side of innovation you're on, we make it move faster.

Founders

From idea to funded — faster

Grants matched, accelerator entry, warm VC access — one profile, every funding path. The network compresses grant-to-term-sheet from years of cold outreach into one connected pipeline.

→ Start your funding journey
Venture capital

High-potential. High-velocity. High-impact.

Pre-market deal flow from the accelerator, university cohorts and our pre-raise signal engine — verified companies, a median of 71 days before they open a round.

SMSF & early-stage investors

The go-to place to back early-stage innovation

Structured access to early-stage innovation for eligible SMSF trustees, sophisticated and wholesale investors — curated opportunities and the Innovation Fund, without needing a fund of your own.

→ Explore investor access
Universities

Put your cohort in front of every VC

The network where university accelerators and research commercialisation teams present their startups and innovations directly to member funds — and judge the Global Innovation Award.

→ Present your cohort
Government & business

Fund the innovation that solves your problem

Stop scanning the market and start commissioning it. Back innovations targeting the operational, policy and industry problems you're already facing — from pilot to procurement to investment.

→ Bring us a problem
Accelerator

Where the network's best are built

Our accelerator feeds the whole network: founders get capital and structure, VCs get first look, universities get a pathway, and problem-owners get teams building against their briefs.

→ About the accelerator
The two days that matter

The network meets twice a year. In person.

Everything the platform does digitally comes together physically at two flagship events.

Funding is fuel. Acceleration is the machine.

Capital, cohorts, customers and credibility — connected so innovation moves in months, not years. Founder, fund, SMSF trustee, university or problem-owner: take your seat, and the next VC Day is closer than you think.
