Portfolio Manager - Global Tech Fund

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 and New Zealand, Israel, and Southeast Asia. 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.
