Tips for Applicants

Given the foundation's big-bets philosophy, applicants should emphasize scalability, transformative potential, and measurable life-saving impact. Connection to Atlassian's ecosystem (startups, tech companies) may be advantageous. Focus on health innovations targeting underserved populations.

Giving Philosophy

The foundation pursues high-impact, transformative investments rather than incremental grants. Their tagline 'making big bets' indicates a venture philanthropy approach — funding innovations with potential to save millions of lives, particularly for underserved populations. The explicit focus on breakthrough health solutions suggests appetite for higher-risk, higher-reward propositions.
