You’re part of the community.
Finishing a Future Minds program isn’t the end. It’s your entry into a growing network of people who are building, creating, exploring and figuring out what comes next — together.


Our Alumni Community
Everyone who's been through a Future Minds program stays in the network. No application, no fee, no expiry. Whatever you're figuring out next, someone here has already done it.
Who should join?
The community is open to anyone who has taken part in a Future Minds program. That includes:
Still building
Your idea outlived the cohort. Get mentors, microgrants and people who will tell you the truth about it.
Working out what's next
Your venture stopped but your journey is just beginning. Find work, study paths and people who took a similar turn.
Ready to give back
Judge a Pitch Night, mentor a team, or run a program in your city. Alumni get first call on paid facilitation work.
Find someone who's done it.
Tell us what you're stuck on and we'll point you at people in our network who've been there.

Things that stay open to you.
We built the alumni community because the program is the easy part. What is hard is the year afterwards,
when the deadline is gone, the mentors have moved on and you are working out whether to keep going.
A mentor, when you need one
Ask for an intro to anyone in the industry network. We make it. The only rule is that you turn up to the call you asked for.
The opportunities board
Jobs, internships, grants and programs that alumni have actually been hired through.
Alumni events
Reunions, skill sessions and the occasional thing that's just a party. Open to every alum, whichever year you came through.
A reference that means something
We'll write for university, visas, grants and jobs. We know what you actually did, so it isn't generic.
Every resource, kept
Workbooks, canvases and slides from your program stay yours. Come back to them in three years when they finally make sense.
Bring a friend
Nominate someone for a program, or bring a mate to an alumni event. The network grows the way it always has — sideways.
Doors that only open once you're an alum.
Some of these need an application. All of them are only available to people who've come through a program.
Alumni with a story worth hearing get listed in our speaker directory, where schools, conferences and companies book young speakers. Paid work, not exposure.
SEE THE DIRECTORYOur annual award recognising 25 young people building something. Alumni nominations are read first. The next round is in Dec 2026.
The most common thing alumni do next is stand at the front. If you've built something since, we'll put you in a classroom - you're a better proof point than any guest we could book.
