Real talk Side Stage Ventures

Today, I'm excited to share that we’ve done the first close of Side Stage Ventures Fund 1 and quietly made our first 3 investments from the fund.

That is why we're building SSV Fund I - a founder-led seed fund & community to back the top 1% of founders in Australia 🇦🇺. The fund we wish we had when we were starting out. This is Day 0. We're just getting started 🚀 afr.com/technology/lin…

Congrats Ben Grabiner Markus Kahlbetzer for leading the next iteration of Side Stage Ventures 🙌 Beyond excited for what’s to come in the Aus startup ecosystem!

Australia needs a greater diversity of exceptional early stage minds investing and a big congrats to Markus Kahlbetzer Ben Grabiner and team Side Stage Ventures on your first close 💫
