FOMENT offers intensive acceleration to innovative tech companies or projects ready to scale up, and then connects them with viti, wine and tourism businesses who are positioned to use their products and services.

FOMENT speeds up tech adoption by wine and tourism businesses by connecting them with providers of tech solutions which can make them more competitive, profitable, and more likely to reach new markets around the world.

Picture
TIME COMMITMENT: Intensive 6 week program run in February and March 2023.

OVERVIEW: Take a hard review of your business in every aspect and make strategic growth decisions with the help of coaching industry experts.

CONTENT:
We will tackle the real aspects of your business from your business model, your value proposition, your selling channels and your customer relationships all the way to your business financials, funding avenues, start up marketing and involvement in Industry 4.0.
 
Each week of the program, you will spend 2 days gaining knowledge from industry professionals as a cohort and then 3 days working on your business with one-on-one coaching from our facilitators and
industry mentors who are matched to your business' specific needs. You will also get introductions and meetings with potential clients.

IMMERSION: Mid-program, deep dive into one of Australia’s premier wine and tourism regions, where we will partake in a regional immersion, helping you get to know the industry. The accelerator wraps up with an industry and investor pitch competition.

Watch our testimonials from participants and FOMENT facilitators here.​​
“Being part of FOMENT has opened doors to the South Australian wine industry much faster than we could have done ourselves. The entire process from start to finish has been seamless and easy as a participating company. (We) changed from all angles, on everything from our business model to how we think about scale. The facilitators, advisory board and program mentors were exceptional and I imagine, inaccessible without FOMENT.”
