So who are the deal makers in the Australian VC Community



Claire Thompson at Herbert Smith Freehills who advised Blinq on its latest $25m series A round at a $200m Val seems to be a major player  in the  Australian venture capital raisings and technology sector. 

Other recent examples include:
  • SafetyCulture on its A$60.5 million Series C1, A$99 million Series C2 and A$165 million Series C3 raises
  • Deputy Group on its A$111 million Series B capital raise and its strategic investments from Xero and Express Employment Professionals
  • Brainfish on its Seed funding round.
  • Headline on its investment in Heidi Health’s US$16.6 million Series A extension round.
  • Updoc on its A$20 million investment from Bailador.
  • Linktree on its US$110 million capital raise at a valuation of US$1.3 billion
  • Culture Amp on its A$120 million Series E capital raise and A$135 million Series F capital raise and secondary sale

Looking forward to have #Referron as a headstone :)
