Our story

About Plus Eight

We believe that Australia has the right ingredients to be a world-leading innovation and startup centre.

Plus Eight was launched in 2016 by WA's leading technology hub, Spacecubed, as a seed-funded accelerator program helping local startups go global. To increase the pipeline of support, we launched Plus Eight Academy, including a pre-accelerator program, one day bootcamp and scale-up events.
