Techstars Sydney Build Challenge: Find the Hidden Founders

🔍 Techstars Sydney Build Challenge: Find the Hidden Founders

Sign up by: May 26 (midnight AEST)
Submit by: June 7

Some of the best founders are hidden in plain sight. They’re not posting on LinkedIn — they’re heads down building. They’re scale-up veterans whose options are vesting. Migrants building quiet empires. PhD researchers with IP ready to spin out.

We want you to help us find and map them.

🧠 The Challenge

Build a searchable database of under-the-radar founder talent. Your product should help surface high-potential current and future founders across Australia.

Must include fields for:

Name
LinkedIn
City
Startup name (if applicable)
Tags (e.g. “scale-up alum,” “side project builder,” “PhD researcher,” “migrant founder”)
Diversity measures:
- Required: Gender, Ethnicity
- Optional: LGBTQI+, Neurodivergent, Age, Migrant status

🔎 Suggested Data Sources

You're free to be creative, but here are a few to start:

LinkedIn (roles, career trajectories, side project links)
Community groups (Slack/Discords, meetup lists, university clubs)
Crunchbase (stealth startups, early stage company staff)
University and research websites
Founder Twitter/X, Product Hunt, GitHub

You can scrape, research, or crowdsource — as long as the end product is insightful and usable.

🧑‍⚖️ Judging

Projects will be judged by the Techstars team based on:

Data insight and quality
Filterable, usable UX
Creativity in uncovering non-obvious talent

🏆 What You Can Win

Major prize: $2K prize pool ($1.5K first, $500 second)

🚀 Fast-tracked interview to the Techstars Sydney Accelerator
- US$120k investment + 13-week in-person program
💼 3 x warm intros to top VCs if you're looking to spin this into a startup
🧢 Bonus perks from our sponsor pool:
- Cloud credits
- Discounted co-working space memberships
- Free subscriptions to AI tools
- Strategy sessions

🧠 Prompt Inspiration

Think:

4-year scale-up engineer ready to jump
PhD close to finishing, researching AI, bio, or deeptech
SMB operator now launching SaaS tools
Hackathon winners not yet “in the ecosystem”
Migrant entrepreneurs running businesses under the radar
