Battle of the Founders Pitch Night with OnMarket
Event description
Fishburners is partnering with OnMarket to deliver the epic Battle of the Founders Pitch Night, back for 2023!
The Battle of the Founders is the ultimate showdown of innovation, bringing together some of the most promising entrepreneurs across Australia.
In 2022, the Battle of the Founders (BOTF) was born in collaboration with Fishburners - attracting an audience of over 250 people and crowning three founders victorious – Duckrow (formally willHQ), Fempro Armour and Foura. Their prize? A capital raise with OnMarket at no up-front cost on a timeline of their choice.
How does the program work?
Phase 1: Introduction to capital raising avenues for start-ups, focusing on crowdfunding.
Phase 2: A message and pitch refinement workshop.
Phase 3: The battle ground – a pitch night at Fishburners on September 22nd.
BOTF fosters the growth of innovation in Australia through scarce and valuable education on business development, capital raising and pitch refinement.
We're currently opening NSW applications to join, with the opportunity to win $50,000 worth of prizes, including the incredible opportunity to raise capital via crowd-sourced funding with OnMarket.

In the final phase of the three-event competition, the eagerly anticipated pitch night is set for the 22nd of September at Fishburners. The three winners will share $50,000 worth of prizes, including the incredible opportunity to raise capital via crowd-sourced funding with OnMarket.
We invite you to join us on the 22nd of September for the second NSW Battle of the Founders.
