Although we are only open to Sydney and Melbourne members, we are keen to open up new locations across ANZ.

If you are based in another city, please submit an Expression of Interest form and let us know where you're based!

When we announce new cities, you'll be the first to know.

Your membership fee supports:

🤝 In-Person Events: Covering the costs of food, beverages and engaging speakers.

🚀 Startmate's Mission: Empowering ambitious Australian and New Zealand early-stage founders and operators.

The value of this membership is supercharged by the incredible women in the community.

Because of this, we expect our members to commit to all of their peer advisory sessions as well as most of our virtual role-based mentorship sessions and in-person 'level-ups'.

Members who miss more than 3 sessions will be withdrawn from the membership (except in extenuating circumstances)

At a minimum, we expect our members to commit to all peer advisory sessions, which will be held monthly (1.5 hours).

On top off this, in a given month there will also be either an in-person workshop, a role advisory session, or a guest speaker session (an additional ~1-2 hours, depending).

This membership is a bit of both. In-person 'level up' workshops and events are held across Sydney and Melbourne, while peer advisory and role-based peer mentorship will be primarily delivered virtually.

Keen to join but aren't based in those cities? Submit an Expression of Interest and let us know where home is for you!
