The Sydney Genesis Business Plan Competition



Welcome to Sydney Genesis! Sydney Genesis is a start up competition at the University of Sydney.

Do you have an idea in business, technology or social enterprise? If so, you’re in the right place! Sydney Genesis is dedicated to helping you bring your ideas to life through workshops, mentoring, networking and prizes!

Meet some of our past prize winners and finalists!


In 2012, there are two categories - Best Innovation Capital Prize and the Best Social Startup Prize.

All you need to do is form a team and submit a 1 page proposal of your idea by 5pm AEST Friday 17th August 2012.

Your idea can be a new technology that you want to commercialise, a new online business, a new take on a traditional business, a community initiative. It doesn't matter what your idea is - we just want to see that you are truly passionate about your idea and believe that you are the team to make it happen! See our past winners and finalists for some inspiration!
