Startup World Cup Sydney 2026
Watch 10 startups pitch for a shot at San Francisco while connecting with investors, founders, and the people who can actually move your business forward.
Ten carefully selected startups will pitch live to an investor panel, giving you a front-row seat to see which founders are thinking biggest. The real value is the networking afterwards, where you can connect with the pitching founders, the judges, and other operators and investors in the room. If you're thinking about fundraising, hiring, or finding your next business partner, this is where those conversations actually happen. The Sydney winner gets flights to San Francisco and a spot at the global Grand Finale, which adds real stakes to the evening. This isn't a polished conference talk series, it's working-level people in a room trying to figure out who to work with next.
