DIV Fund Grant
The DIV Fund provides milestone-based grants for innovations that can cost-effectively improve the lives of people in low- and middle-income countries and ultimately reach more than one million people. Funding is structured across three stages: up to US$200,000 for pilots, up to US$500,000 for testing and positioning for scale, and up to US$1.5 million for scaling. It supports businesses, social enterprises, nonprofits, universities and other organisations across sectors. Innovations must already be post-prototype and tested with real users; idea-stage projects are not eligible.
Good fit: Post-prototype founders with real-world usage and evidence of initial demand.
Alliance Accelerator
The Alliance Accelerator is a highly selective 10-week accelerator for crypto and fintech startups, accepting companies across stages from pre-product and pre-revenue onward. The program begins with two weeks in New York City, followed by seven weeks remotely and a final Demo Day in New York. Accepted companies receive US$400,000 immediately via a SAFE at a US$4M post-money valuation, plus a 1:1 token side letter, with another US$400,000 potential follow-on at Seed. Alliance runs three cohorts per year and accepts global participants, making Australian founders explicitly eligible.
Good fit: Australian crypto or onchain founders from pre-product onward.
Llama Beta Fellowship
The Beta Fellowship is an 8-week in-person fellowship from Beta Fund for founders building agent-native AI startups. The program supports founders who are often at the earliest stages—even before there is a company, revenue or finished idea. Fellows receive mentorship from founders, engineers and investors, work alongside a small cohort, and build within the Beta Fund ecosystem. The fellowship also serves as a pathway to Beta Fund investment, with the fund writing US$200K first checks and investing up to US$2M across pre-seed and seed stages
Good fit: Idea-stage founders exploring agent-native AI startup ideas.
