ScaleUP Showcase

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

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 Momentum track will be awarded a $100,000 UniQuest investment (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.
