2020 MAP Launch

In 2018 we packed the Plaza Ballroom, in 2019 filled the Meat Market to the rafters, in 2020 it’s a chance to bring the Launch to every corner of this country (and beyond) for an experience you’re not going to forget.

The MAP launch has become one of the largest startup networking events in Australia, attracting investors, venture capitalists, entrepreneurs, and industry leaders, all eager to discover the latest emerging entrepreneurial talent - with some of Australia’s most recognised startups including Acusensus, Carbar, CNSDose, Scratch, and Brosa having all taken the stage in recent years.

This year represents our 9th Accelerator cohort, with MAP forming in 2012, and every year these teams take the stage at the Launch as the first chance to be introduced to the incredible startup community, building a support network around them from the very beginning of their journey.

This year the intention is no different, however for the first time we’re taking everything entirely online, and are so excited to connect with new communities, and bring so many more people on this journey with the founders and want to make sure we see you all there.

This year we’ve partnered with Ticker TV to bring this event to life. We invite you to join us to hear the successful pitches from our 2020 cohort, and then stay for the afterparty where you’ll get to meet the Founders as well as enjoy a range of entertainment, surprises, and special guests.

There’s plenty of mystery and we’re going to keep it that way, as some suspense adds to the fun and you know how much this event means to MAP and our entire community so you can be assured it’s going to be one you don’t want to miss.

See the details below and a glimpse into the teams who’ll be taking the stage this year.
