Backing Female Founders Grants now open

Advance Queensland’s Backing Female Founders Program provides initiatives to grow and scale Queensland innovation businesses founded by women across all industries, including agriculture.

How can the Backing Female Founders Program support you?

• Female Founders Co-investment Fund: available to innovative female founded businesses undertaking an early-stage capital raise with new investors. Applications are now open and will close when all funding is allocated.
• Accelerating Female Founders Program: available to organisations for the delivery of existing business support initiatives, or modified business support initiatives to address barriers and increase participation of female founders.

The program also collaborates with industry and government partners to deliver events, connections and resources to support women to continue their business journey and develop into thriving innovation driven enterprises.
