CyRise Cyber Security Accelerator

CyRise is an early stage venture accelerator for cyber security founders.

Formed in partnership with Deakin University and Dimension Data, CyRise's focus is on early stage cyber security startups and giving them the mentoring and support to take their ideas to a global market.

Supported through LaunchVic's first funding round, CyRise funds early stage cyber security startups and accelerates development so the business is commercially viable sooner.

The six-month, mentor-driven program provides teams the chance to work with leaders in the cyber field, travel to Israel and the US and receive AU$50K funding as a part of a capped agreement for future equity. LaunchVic funding supported the first cohort of the CyRise accelerator, which supported 4 cybersecurity teams.

Funding for this program is now complete.
