Muru D

muru-D is a startup accelerator, backed by Telstra. We develop big thinking entrepreneurs in Australia who use technology to solve challenging global problems. Our vision is to make the world a better place by developing resilient entrepreneurs who can make an impact. We’re also committed to positively influencing the startup ecosystem wherever we run programs. We launched in 2013 and run programs in Sydney and Melbourne and have partner programs in Brisbane with River City Lab and Perth with Spacecubed. This makes us the largest accelerator in Australia. We’re all about positive change and technology. We love supporting founders who are making a positive social impact, like improving the way we look after ourselves and our environment. And we get really excited about interesting technology, like Artificial Intelligence (AI), Virtual Reality (VR), Augmented Reality (AR), drones and satellite technology, and robotics! We love this stuff. What does muru-D mean? “muru” is the Sydney Aboriginal Eora word meaning “path”, and “D” stands for digital. Given that we were founded in Australia and we provide global pathways to success for digital entrepreneurs to be successful, it encapsulates our vision and what we do.
