Northern Australia Sector Alignment
Croc Pitch 2025 is Northern Australia’s largest pitch contest, offering up to $1 million in venture capital for innovations that can transform the region.
We’re calling on founders and businesses with solutions that align to Northern Australia’s priority growth sectors — including advanced manufacturing, space, energy, defence, agriculture, and resources. But it’s not just about the sector; it’s about solving the real, on-the-ground challenges that come with doing business in the North.
Think remote operations, extreme weather, supply chain gaps, or workforce shortages in critical industries. The Croc Pitch stage is for innovations that are ready to make a difference — and test-bed in Northern Australia’s live, demanding environment.
Whether it’s precision manufacturing, autonomous systems, satellite technologies, or dual-use innovations, Croc Pitch connects you to investors, government, and partners who can help scale and prove your solution in the field.
Delivered in a hybrid format, Croc Pitch invites global participation — but the impact has to land where it counts: here in the North.
Recent Croc Pitch participants have secured millions in Paspalis VC beyond pitch day, including Esper ($1.7M in 2024), Blueflite ($1.6M in 2023), and Atomionics ($4M in 2022).
