Antler Australia Startup Program for Founders and Entrepreneurs

Antler Australia offers a startup generator program that invests in early-stage founders with innovative business ideas. Entrepreneurs gain access to mentorship, funding, and a global network to scale their ventures. 

The residency & investment terms

The 10-week in-person residency, which runs twice a year in February and August, is designed to promote team formation, idea validation, testing and building. It culminates with an investment committee where teams pitch for Pre-Seed funding from Antler.

If successful at the investment committee, your Company will receive AU$225,000 for a 12% equity stake. At this point, Antler takes a AU$68,000 platform fee. This sees the Company receive AU$157,000 net at a pre-money valuation of AU$1,650,000.
