You’ve built something that works here. The next market decides what it’s worth.
The Australian market will cap your growth long before it caps your ambition. We back B2B tech founders (hardware and software) who are targeting the US or UK market.
Going global on instinct is the most expensive way to do it.
You will be making the biggest bet of the company’s life 15,000km from home, against benchmarks you have never seen, in a market where the buyers, the pricing and the unwritten rules are all different.
Most founders find that out by paying for it. The ones who don’t usually had someone alongside them who had already made the mistakes.
Why us
We’re ex-operators, supporting operators.
Our team have been founders. We have built, scaled and exited B2B companies — from zero to IPO — and we spend more time supporting the companies we back than we do finding new ones.
We take you there
Week-long missions to London and San Francisco, 20–30 meetings deep, with venture partners in both markets who open doors you could not find alone.
We back two to six new ventures a year
Deliberately few, so the support is real. We are not managing a portfolio of fifty and calling it a relationship.
We stay out of your way
We invest in founders who don’t need us, and we are there for them when they do. We take information rights, not the wheel.
What we look for
We are the B2B VC for Australian tech
B2B tech
Hardware or software — bits and bytes. You sell to SMB, enterprise or government customers.
Post-Seed to Series A
Predominantly recurring revenue, roughly $500k–$2m ARR, with proven demand.
Sales engine machinery
You have the early mechanics of a repeatable sales process, and the levers on a durable competitive advantage.
US or UK on the roadmap
Not someday. On the plan. This is the whole thesis.
We are sector agnostic, and we lean toward technology solving real problems in traditional industries — agriculture, manufacturing, energy, construction, transport, mining and resources, government, finance and insurance.
How it works
Three steps, and the first one isn’t a pitch
Yes, like every VC we have the usual routine: pitch, decide, money transfer. But we are not your typical VC — we like to help you long before you need any capital from us.
Step 1
Let us help you early
Join a US/UK mission, the Global Growth Program or the Growth Summit, listen to the podcast, or come to our events. We work closely with dozens of companies a year, long before we invest in them.
Step 2
Get investment
Send us your pitch deck, jump on some calls, and if you land within our thesis then we will invest — typically A$200k–$1m as a first cheque.
Step 3
We help whenever you need us
Beyond the capital: hands-on support and frameworks across people, process, strategy and expansion, including in-market introductions in the UK and USA.
If it isn’t a fit, you get a fast no, with the reasons and an introduction where we can make one. That is worth more than a slow maybe.
Ready when you are.
Ready to raise? Email us your pitch deck and any information you can, using the button below.
Not ready to raise? Then join us on a US or UK mission first. We would rather watch you pitch a US investor at 9am or close a UK pilot at 4pm than read your pitch deck. That tells us more than any amount of pitch calls.
