Pitch Night

ilab x Momentum Accelerator Pitch Night 2025

Witness the grand finale of UQ’s first ilab x Momentum Accelerator as the top 10 startups are gearing up to pitch their breakthrough ideas live to investors, industry leaders, and the wider innovation community. 

We invite you to join our startup founders as they pitch to a panel of experts and an audience of innovators from Queensland’s entrepreneurship ecosystem, as part of Ventures' ScaleUP Showcase at Brisbane Convention and Exhibition Centre.

After 15 weeks of intensive mentoring, expert-led sessions, and hands-on development, our brightest founders step onto the stage to share their journeys and compete for funding, recognition, and a place in Queensland’s innovation future. One standout venture from the ilab x Momentum Accelerator will have the opportunity to be awarded up to $100,000 in investment thanks UEF (subject to due diligence), while all presenting teams vie for support and industry connections. 

Expect an unforgettable evening of energy, creativity, and fearless ambition. Bold thinkers will bring big ideas to life, ignite conversations, and inspire what comes next. Whether you’re a startup enthusiast, investor, partner, or curious attendee, Pitch Night is your opportunity to experience first-hand the vibrancy and impact of the UQ accelerator community. 

Join us and be part of the momentum driving Queensland’s next wave of entrepreneurial success.
