# Step Change News: Startup Muster 2017 Survey Kicks Off

Calling all startup supporters, startup founders, future founders — Startup Muster has opened its annual survey.

[The largest survey of Australia’s startup ecosystem](https://www.startupmuster.com/about) aims to measure and analyse the ecosystem of Australian startups.

This time, the survey is giving the participating startups the option to connect with each other. This means supporters can define the kind of startup they want to help and founders will be able to engage with the supporters that have helped startups like their own.

Startup Muster’s founder, Monica Wulff hopes to see more female founders participating in this year’s survey. In 2015, only 17.4% were female. Last year, it climbed to 23.5%.

“What we’ve seen each year is that female participation has increased… They have a place here to play and that they are important,” she says.

To take part of the survey, visit their [website](http://www.startupmuster.com).
