Our story

We believe that technology will transform every industry in the world – and that brilliant, ambitious founders will sit at the heart of this change.

Square pegs might not fit in round holes. But they do fit with us.

We are a venture capital firm that helps founders from our corners of the world shape the future. Founded in 2012 in Australia, we combine the best of a local partner with a global network of companies and now back founders early and repeatedly from three of technology’s most exciting regions: Australia & New Zealand, Southeast Asia, and Israel.

Five funds in with US$2.9 billion in assets across our venture capital and public equities funds, we’re the only investor that backed Canva, Airwallex and Rokt – three of Australia’s highest-valued private tech companies – and we’re honoured to partner with Fiverr, Aidoc and Tomorrow.io in Israel, and Doctor Anywhere and Kredivo out of Southeast Asia.

We started because we knew more generational companies could come from our corners of the world.

And they have. When we started in 2012, 90% of tech unicorns came from the US and China. Today, that figure is closer to 50% and we’re proud to operate in three of technology’s most exciting regions: Australia and New Zealand, Israel and Southeast Asia.
