Startup in 10 Weeks with Antler

If you've ever dreamed of launching your own startup, Antler Australia might just be the accelerator you’ve been looking for. Antler, a global early-stage VC, is inviting founders from all backgrounds to apply for its 10-week residency program - designed to take you from idea (or no idea) to investor-ready startup with Pre-Seed funding.

Twice a year - in February and August - Antler selects around 80 individuals with “Founder DNA” to join its highly selective program in Australia. Whether you come with a pre-validated idea or simply the ambition to build, Antler offers co-founder matching, dedicated coaching, and access to a powerful global network.

What you’ll gain:

  • Co-Founder Matching & Validation: Meet like-minded, vetted talent to build with.

  • Coaching & Resources: Work alongside experienced operators and mentors.

  • Initial Funding: Receive Pre-Seed investment with potential for follow-on funding up to Series C.

  • Global Expansion Support: Tap into Antler’s 30-location network across six continents.

From former corporate professionals to returning founders and visionary first-timers, Antler helps shape high-impact companies across all industries - from SaaS and fintech to deeptech and digital platforms.

Just ask founders like Helena Turpin (GoFIGR) or Ashwin Ramachandran (Sapyen), who credit Antler with fast-tracking their startups, providing game-changing access to networks, capital, and support.
