Allens Accelerate

Yes.

For early-stage startups or those just embarking on their startup journey, Allens Accelerate offers the A-Suite package. This is a free set of essential legal documents drafted specifically for startups. They contain user-friendly guidance notes and optional text for startups to customise themselves. They are the perfect tool to get your startup underway.

For those startups that have progressed further in their journey (eg those with a minimum viable product or those seeking their first major funding round), Allens Accelerate offers fixed and flexibly-priced services and advice. Once at this stage, startups are generally in need of more complex and specialised advice.

If this is what you need, please reach out to us. We'll carry out a quick screening process to ensure we are the right firm for you and that we can build a long-term relationship. Then we can get to work.

Allens has recently launched Auctus, an eight-week accelerator program specifically for legaltech and regtech startups. It addresses two challenges for the legal industry:

• contract creation and management; and
• risk assessment, management and compliance.

Whilst we don't have a general accelerator program for startups in other industries, the Allens Accelerate practice is dedicated to supporting the Australian startup community by providing legal assistance.

We have partnered with many of Australia's successful startups that are responding to disruption, and with investors and corporates who are investing in innovation. We are able to use our extensive network to connect our Allens Accelerate clients with potential customers, investors and policymakers.

It depends.

Our Allens Accelerate A-Suite package of legal documents is available for any startup. They provide the necessary legal foundation to establish your enterprise, and you can customise the documents yourself using the detailed, user-friendly guidance notes and optional text.

If you give us your consent and your details, we may contact you from time to time to share news and opportunities or invite you to networking events.
