How to Enter the Kickstarter Challenge (And Give Yourself the Best Chance to Win)

Thinking about entering the Kickstarter Challenge? Great idea. This is your chance to take your business to the next level with funding, exposure and expert support. Whether you’re feeling ready to hit submit or just scoping things out, this guide will walk you through what’s involved, how to prepare, and what makes a submission stand out.
Let’s get into it.

What is the Kickstarter Challenge?

The Kickstarter Challenge is designed to support female-led businesses with bold ideas and big potential. This isn’t just a competition. It’s a platform to launch, grow and gain recognition for your business.

By entering, you’re in the running for:

  • A share of $60,000 in equity-free funding

  • An all-expenses-paid trip to Canberra to pitch to industry judges

  • Exclusive mentoring sessions with experienced business leaders

  • Brand and media training to help you grow with confidence

  • Social media support to amplify your reach

  • Graphic design support to sharpen your brand and pitch materials

How to Enter

Head to enterprisingme.com.au/accelerate/kickstarter-challenge and click Submit your idea.

You’ll see the full entry form there. It’s a good idea to read through all the questions first. Some will be quick to answer, others might take a little more thought. You can’t save your progress, so it’s helpful to copy and paste the questions into a document and work on them at your own pace.
