90% of startups fail – so how do you find out if your idea is in the 90% or the 10%?
How can you pick the ideas with potential out from the probable dead ends? 🤔
What if... all you needed was a space to pressure test your idea, learn from other founders, and build the network you need to support your startup as it grows?
Velocity (our part-time pre-accelerator) may be the answer you're looking for 🙌
Designed to help you nail your product-solution fit and give you the best opportunity for startup success.
Applications for our Velocity Winter cohort are now open.

❗MAP 2024 applications are officially OPEN!❗
We're searching for 11 high-performing startups who are ready to unleash their potential and outgrow the ordinary.
To date, our MAP Accelerator Program has helped over 100 startups to:
📈 Raise $250m+ investment
💰 Generate $250m+ revenue
💼 Create 1,500+ jobs
Start the application process here: https://buff.ly/49fNAM2
How do you ensure the long-term success of founders? 🤔
Step one: align personal and business interests.
From the outset, we engage with our founders, asking them, "What business do you want to build?" and actively support them in achieving their entrepreneurial goals. WIRL (MAP 2023 alum) shares a great example of this.
At MAP, we believe that founders should be given the autonomy to shape their businesses as they envision. That's why we don't take equity and leave the decision-making regarding venture capital deals and liquidity events entirely in the hands of our founders.
Interested in an Accelerator Program that is founder-centric and will help you outgrow the ordinary? Chat with one of our team to get your foot in the door: https://buff.ly/48UWOgv

Our core belief is that a startup's most valuable asset is its people. 💙
At MAP we foster an environment where the people come first. An environment where founders learn about themselves, their co-founders, and the rest of the cohort.
While this results in a drive for each founder to perform, it also builds a community like no other.
But hey, don't just take our word for it 👇
Susanna and JJ Richardson, Co-Founders of SWIFF and MAP 2023 alums, answer the question "What was your favourite part of being in MAP?"

In a world filled with problematic attitudes towards food, Alicia Holmquest and Bree Pagonis are on a mission to dismantle the presence of diet culture, opting instead to elevate the world's emotional wellbeing through the power of food. 🍽
Having met at University, Bree and Alicia have since combined their 20 years experience as dieticians to develop WIRL, an online-based app that bridges the connection between gut and brain health. Curating user experiences that empower mental wellbeing through food, it’s clear to see the foundation of WIRL underpinned by the distinct personality and decade-long friendship of the two founders. 😄
With a ⚠️ special announcement ⚠️ from the founding duo set to take place at MAP Demo Day, be sure to secure your tickets before it’s too late!

We’re constantly pushing our founders to do things differently, so why not practice what we preach. Introducing…

Our founders come from various backgrounds, hometowns, industries and life experiences. But in joining MAP, each startup shares one common goal: to achieve positive, real-world impact. 🚀
Daniel Tan, Founder of Vimi and MAP 2022 alum, shares his story of how he ended up where he is today. While Vimi is Daniel's second startup and is disrupting the video production industry, his journey to get there was not as direct as it may seem. Making the move from Malaysia to Melbourne, across to Adelaide and back to Melbourne, Daniel shares that this journey included what he believed was the toughest period of his life.
