2021 MAP Launch

The MAP Launch attracts the best talent from across the startup ecosystem including entrepreneurs, corporate leaders and venture capitalists. You will be hearing from the 10 outstanding startup teams who have worked tirelessly to gain a spot on this year’s program.

MAP is the University of Melbourne’s highly sought-after accelerator program. Every year we invest in 10 of Australia’s most outstanding startups, equipping them with $20,000 equity-free funding, inner-city office space and access to Australia’s best business minds to help them accelerate their growth. Join us in celebrating the next 10 standout teams who are about to embark on this exciting journey and see the winning pitches that earned them a spot on the most sought-after accelerator program.

We will be delivering the MAP21 Launch event as a virtual experience, which means that everyone is invited! Founders, startup supporters and investors from across the country and even further afield. We’ve partnered with New Mac Video Agency to bring you a launch like no other, with filming taking place in the beautiful XO Studios in Melbourne’s Brunswick East. We’ll be joined by special guest speakers from across the University of Melbourne as well as MAP alumni and Entrepreneurs-in-Residence.

We invite you to join us for this power-hour of pitches, hear from teams doing things like improving patient experiences with sleep apnea to revolutionising the way coffee producers connect with consumers worldwide. Stick around after the event to meet this year’s standout teams who are about to embark on a 5-month intensive journey, centred around bespoke masterclasses, mentoring sessions and unrestricted access to our world-class professional networks.

There will be something for everyone at the MAP21 Launch so be sure not to miss out, secure your ticket now.
