Startup Budget Announcements for the continued growth of our ecosystem

LaunchVic will invest $300,000 in Tractor Ventures to establish Victoria’s first dedicated revenue-based fund (venture debt fund), targeted at early-stage revenue positive and self-funded startups.

LaunchVic is thrilled to announce additional funding made possible by the Victorian Government to extend Ngarrimili's activities into 2021.  Ngarrimili was established to nurture and support business and entrepreneurship opportunities amongst Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander communities across Victoria.

LaunchVic welcomes the Victorian Government’s Victorian Budget 2020/21 committing a total of $186.2 million to the continued growth of Victoria’s startup ecosystem. This is a huge vote of confidence in Victoria's $7 billion startup ecosystem and the important role that startups will play in new jobs creation and the economic recovery of the State.
