In the 90s, after building my software companies in Silicon Valley, I went home to Australia and started a venture capital fund, running it for five years with a business partner. Years later, with resilient determination, the company gave birth to one of the best performing VCs in Australia.

We then eventually exited that fund, sold the portfolio, delivered eight times the return to the investors, and then I found myself looking around for a better way to really serve the emerging startup community in Australia.
