Female Entrepreneur Grant

What is the Boosting Female Founder (BFF) Initiative?

The BFF Initiative commenced in 2020 and is designed to help female entrepreneurs overcome the disadvantages faced in getting access to finance and support to grow their startups. The program provides grants between $25,000 and $400,000 on a co-contribution basis and is open to startups that are majority owned and led by women who want to expand their business into domestic and global markets.

Funding application opens in 2 stages: expression of interest and grant application.

In the grant application stage, you must articulate

We can help build a compelling case for your application with robust financial model and comprehensive projection for all stages of your business from startup to growth and expansion.
