Atto is perfect for aspiring early-stage female founders, this includes both emerging founders with a brand new idea or those who have started testing. Atto is open to founders located around the globe, however, your time zone should overlap with Australian Eastern Time.

Throughout the program, you should invest at least 5 hours per week to attend the workshop sessions as well as work on your startup. At the end of the program, you should be in a position to share what you’ve achieved at our internal showcase.
