Stone & Chalk alumni
Once a member, always part of the story
Our network of alumni
Ten years ago, Stone & Chalk opened its doors to help founders bring their ideas to life.
Since then, thousands of startups have grown, found customers, raised capital, and scaled across the world – all beginning right here in our community.
You were part of that story. You helped lay the foundations of something extraordinary.
Now, as we look to the next decade, we’ve set a bold new goal: to help 10,000 Australian startups succeed by 2035.
And we’d love you to stay part of what comes next.
The alumni program
As a Stone & Chalk alumni, you now have free access to a national network of founders, investors, and partners shaping Australia’s innovation story.
It’s the easiest way to stay connected to the people, opportunities, and visibility that once helped you grow and to keep building what comes next.
Through the Alumni Program, you’ll gain:
Exclusive invitations to alumni and industry events around Australia.
Direct access to news, introductions, and opportunities across the ecosystem.
Visibility and recognition for your company’s growth and impact.
Ways to give back – mentoring, sharing your story, or joining collaborative projects.
Together, we can build the next decade of Australian innovation.
The Founder Pact – Pay it forward
We know your journey so far didn’t happen alone – and neither will the next steps.
The Founder Pact is a national movement of founders, investors, and mentors giving back to the ecosystem that once gave to them.
By signing the Pact, you’re pledging a minimum of 10 hours a year to help others, whether that’s mentoring, making introductions, or sharing your experience.
It’s how we build a stronger, more connected innovation community together.
