FoundersHack Pitch Night
FoundersHack Melbourne Pitch Night!
Join us for an exciting evening at Pitch Night.
This event marks the finale of a three-day startup-centric hackathon that sees students adopt an experimental approach to solving & validating venture-scale problems with a technical build. Expect thoughtful solutions, original thinking, and honest stories of what it took to get here.
The night will feature:
🤖 Live startup pitches from five finalist teams
🤝 Meeting the next generation of tech builders
💬 Networking with founders, venture investors and ecosystem players
Our panel of judges will then select the top three teams to receive grand prizes that could help them advance their ventures:
🥇 First: $1000
🥈 Second: $500
🥉 Third: $200
We'll also be announcing the winners of each track, who will each receive $200.
Whether you're into tech, startups, or want a glimpse into what emerging founders are working on, you're invited!
We’re excited to partner with Canva, one of Australia’s most iconic startups, as the host of our FoundersHack Pitch Night. Canva’s support helps us give student founders a world-class stage to share their ideas and pitch to top investors.
