FOUNDERS FIRST
When we invest in a company, we’re investing in the founders. We know that great founders are the ones behind building of great businesses.
We are on the hunt for the next tech superstar startup. We are incredibly proud of our portfolio, but we have room for more startup t-shirts in our wardrobe.
It’s never too early for a conversation with us about your startup. Our door is always open to ambitious founders.
CONNECTIONS & INTRODUCTIONS
We like to help behind the scenes. As part of our community, we will introduce you to our network of investors, mentors and partners.
We nurture mutually beneficial partnerships at every level of the investment process to increase your chance of building Australia’s next success story.
WHAT WE LOOK FOR
- A business that will scale. That’s why we love technology, but we will make exceptions.
- Traction trumps opinion. Doesn’t need to be pretty, but we like to see early customers loving your product.
- Technical capability is a must. We believe deep domain and technical capability should be your competitive advantage.
- Global problem solvers. We’re here to support founders with a global perspective.
- Customer centric businesses. Founders with a relentless focus on delighting their customers.
WE LIKE TO INVEST EARLY
No stage is too early for us. If you are a startup looking to raise seed funds, pre-seed, friends and family, angel or anything in between – have a chat to us.
Transition Level will invest up to $500k on the first cheque.
We’re happy to lead rounds or to follow other investors into the round.
Startup valuations are part art, part science and may even require the help of a ouija board.
It’s our view that an exceptional business begins with exceptional founders. When reviewing early stage companies, we look for quality founders, first and foremost.
