Stone & Chalk and KPMG Australia are inviting game-changing startups focused on creating solutions in intelligent performance for the next cohort of their Future Technology Program.
The flagship program combines the largest innovation community in Australia at Stone & Chalk with KPMG’s deep expertise and knowledge, offering startups unrivalled access to strategic support to accelerate their growth.
The challenging economic climate has put immense pressure on productivity, business performance, overheads and revenue growth. To address this growing problem, the fourth cohort of the Future Technology Program will be centred on early-stage founders building technology that enables businesses, governments, and other organisations to maximise and improve performance and productivity across all areas of their operations.
