THE MAP STORY

Powered by Australia's leading university, the Melbourne Accelerator Program (MAP) was launched in 2012 as one of the first startup accelerators in Australia, and in 2016 was ranked the 8th best University-aligned accelerator in the world.

In 2023, we're investing in 11 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.

MAP also offers a range of additional programs and events to the broader startup ecosystem, including the MAP Velocity Program (a part-time program for early stage founders), the Melbourne Entrepreneurial Centre Fireside Chat and Masterclass series, and a range of events and festivals in collaboration with our precinct partner, Melbourne Connect.
