It’s a well-known fact that women and founders of underrepresented groups receive only a tiny proportion of venture capital funding in Australia. While 22% of start-ups in Australia are founded by women only 7% secure venture capital funding.
Giant Warm Intro is a program that gives every pre-seed founder access to a warm introduction to Australia’s most prolific investors.
While we encourage all AUSNZ technology founders to apply, we are especially focussed on welcoming women and other founders from underrepresented groups.
