THE PROBLEM Sourcing investable early-stage ventures at competitive valuations is very difficult. This is despite the fact that world-leading research and ventures arise from deep technology R&D out of university and research labs. Australia is renowned for the calibre of its research but very little of it makes it to commercial application. It is an area of the venture capital market that is seriously undercapitalised, inefficient and fragmented. THE SOLUTION SIGNIFICANT invests in the emerging technologies that will shape our future and the future of our economy and society. SIGNIFICANT differs from other early venture capital firms by using its collective sweat equity know-how at the hard to reach axis point where innovation has the potential to become reality. SIGNIFICANT uses a collaborative investment approach to early-stage venture capital applying private equity active management and leveraging aligned interests of universities, local governments, incubators and investors. This brings not just capital to the table but extensive commercial acumen and industry networks which create, shape and accelerate these ventures. This unique approach results in getting more high calibre applied technology innovations to the market faster, creating world leading companies, new industries and new jobs. INTERESTED?
