Invest in us — and everything we invest in.
Scalare Partners went public with a purpose: to give everyday investors access to the exciting world of early-stage startups. Grow alongside the founders we back, in a way no other VC can.
What Makes Us Different
A different kind of venture firm.
We invest differently. Our capital comes from our own balance sheet, which means we're free to back the ideas we believe in — not just the ones chasing the highest returns.
01
We back only eight founders each year
We're not trying to build a portfolio of dozens. We want committed relationships with a handful of founders we like. That means each investment isn't just capital, it comes with our time, attention, and long-term support.
02
We invest from our own balance sheet
Our investment model is unique. As a listed company, we're able to use our capital to back early-stage businesses we genuinely believe in — rather than a traditional Venture Capital model which is optimised for multi-year carries.
03
We offer mentorship for the whole journey
We match every founder with a mentor who can offer honest advice, strategic guidance, and long-term support. We often place a Non-Executive Director on your board to help them make smarter decisions and grow with confidence.
Our Guiding Principles
Fuelling Australia's rise on the world stage.
Australia has ambition in spades. What founders need is the right environment to grow and compete globally. Some of our homegrown startups are standing shoulder-to-shoulder with the world's best, and we're here to help even more of you get there.
Honest Advice
Forged in the trenches.
The people behind Scalare Partners have built, scaled, and sold startups. That's why mentorship is the core of what we do. We give founders honest guidance, born from hard-earned experience, because we know how important the right advice can make.
Freedom to Invest
Where it matters.
Our capital comes from our own balance sheet, which means we're free to back the ideas we believe in — not just the ones chasing the highest returns. We're building long-term partnerships with the right founders, on the right terms.
Our Ventures
Backing the right kind of ambition.
We back early-stage tech companies led by ambitious, coachable founders who have found product traction and are raising on a sub $10m valuation.
