Venture is driving success globally, and now it’s time for Australia and NZ founders to lead with a vehicle made just for them. 🎉   Proud to see our co-founder Anna Nedbaylova, announcing this milestone with Bronwen Clune in the Reporter's Notebook:   "FB Ventures has launched what it claims is Australia’s first roll-up vehicle platform 𝗱𝗲𝘀𝗶𝗴𝗻𝗲𝗱 𝘀𝗽𝗲𝗰𝗶𝗳𝗶𝗰𝗮𝗹𝗹𝘆 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗳𝗼𝘂𝗻𝗱𝗲𝗿𝘀 𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗿 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝗻 𝗶𝗻𝘃𝗲𝘀𝘁𝗼𝗿𝘀, aiming to 𝘀𝗶𝗺𝗽𝗹𝗶𝗳𝘆 𝗰𝗮𝗽𝗶𝘁𝗮𝗹 𝗿𝗮𝗶𝘀𝗶𝗻𝗴 and cap table management for startups.”   This platform lets founders 𝗰𝗼𝗻𝘀𝗼𝗹𝗶𝗱𝗮𝘁𝗲 𝘀𝗺𝗮𝗹𝗹𝗲𝗿 𝗶𝗻𝘃𝗲𝘀𝘁𝗼𝗿𝘀 𝗶𝗻𝘁𝗼 𝗮 𝘀𝗶𝗻𝗴𝗹𝗲 𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗶𝘁𝘆 𝗼𝗻 𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗶𝗿 𝗰𝗮𝗽 𝘁𝗮𝗯𝗹𝗲 — avoiding the 50-shareholder cap while keeping costs down.   “Roll-up vehicles are 𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗺𝗼𝗻 𝗶𝗻 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗨𝗦. It’s almost expected that capital will be raised via an appropriate vehicle,” Anna explains. “Until now, offering a 𝗿𝗼𝗹𝗹-𝘂𝗽 𝘃𝗲𝗵𝗶𝗰𝗹𝗲 𝗶𝗻 𝗔𝘂𝘀𝘁𝗿𝗮𝗹𝗶𝗮 has been prohibitively 𝗲𝘅𝗽𝗲𝗻𝘀𝗶𝘃𝗲.”   Unlike existing syndicate-focused platforms like 𝗔𝘂𝘀𝘀𝗶𝗲 𝗔𝗻𝗴𝗲𝗹𝘀, Nedbaylova says FB Ventures puts control in founders' hands.   With 𝟯𝟬 𝘀𝘁𝗮𝗿𝘁𝘂𝗽𝘀 already using the platform, we’re putting control back in founders’ hands and 𝗲𝗺𝗽𝗼𝘄𝗲𝗿𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗻𝗲𝘅𝘁 𝗴𝗲𝗻𝗲𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 of ANZ innovators.

🔍 𝐈𝐧𝐯𝐞𝐬𝐭𝐨𝐫𝐬: 𝐇𝐨𝐰 𝐄𝐪𝐮𝐢𝐭𝐲 𝐑𝐨𝐥𝐥-𝐔𝐩𝐬 𝐎𝐩𝐞𝐧 𝐁𝐫𝐨𝐚𝐝𝐞𝐫 𝐎𝐩𝐩𝐨𝐫𝐭𝐮𝐧𝐢𝐭𝐢𝐞𝐬 🌐 What if we revealed a new investment strategy that could level the playing field for investors? 🌍 From an investor’s perspective, Equity Roll-Ups open the door to broader investment opportunities. Many startups have a high minimum investment threshold, making it difficult for investors with smaller cheques to participate. With an ERU, smaller checks can be pooled together, allowing investors to gain exposure to high-growth startups without needing to meet the minimum ticket size individually. 🏦 𝗪𝗵𝘆 𝗘𝗾𝘂𝗶𝘁𝘆 𝗥𝗼𝗹𝗹-𝗨𝗽𝘀 𝗪𝗼𝗿𝗸 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗜𝗻𝘃𝗲𝘀𝘁𝗼𝗿𝘀: 🌱 𝗣𝗼𝗿𝘁𝗳𝗼𝗹𝗶𝗼 𝗗𝗶𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘀𝗶𝗳𝗶𝗰𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻: Investors can participate in multiple startups or rounds without needing to commit large sums to each. 📄 𝗥𝗲𝗱𝘂𝗰𝗲𝗱 𝗔𝗱𝗺𝗶𝗻𝗶𝘀𝘁𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗶𝘃𝗲 𝗖𝗼𝗺𝗽𝗹𝗲𝘅𝗶𝘁𝘆: Holding shares through an Equity Roll-Up means less paperwork and a simpler engagement process for investors. 📊 𝗥𝗶𝘀𝗸 𝗠𝗶𝘁𝗶𝗴𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻: With smaller investments spread across multiple deals, investors can diversify risk across a portfolio of startups. Equity Roll-Ups offer investors flexibility, access to broader opportunities, and streamlined engagement with startups. 👉🏻 𝗥𝗲𝗮𝐝𝐲 𝐭𝐨 𝐬𝐢𝐦𝐩𝐥𝐢𝐟𝐲 𝐲𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐜𝐚𝐩𝐢𝐭𝐚𝐥-𝐫𝐚𝐢𝐬𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐩𝐫𝐨𝐜𝐞𝐬𝐬? 🧐 Learn more about how Equity Roll-Ups (ERUs) can help by reading our full article here: https://lnkd.in/gtHUzQR4 👉🏻 𝗝𝘂𝗺𝗽 𝗼𝗻 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗽𝗹𝗮𝘁𝗳𝗼𝗿𝗺 𝘁𝗼 𝗴𝗲𝘁 𝘀𝘁𝗮𝗿𝘁𝗲𝗱: https://lnkd.in/dpGcjPmi

𝗖𝗼𝘀𝘁-𝗘𝗳𝗳𝗶𝗰𝗶𝗲𝗻𝗰𝘆 𝗶𝗻 𝗙𝘂𝗻𝗱𝗿𝗮𝗶𝘀𝗶𝗻𝗴 – 𝗛𝗼𝘄 𝗘𝗾𝘂𝗶𝘁𝘆 𝗥𝗼𝗹𝗹-𝗨𝗽𝘀 𝗦𝗮𝘃𝗲 𝗧𝗶𝗺𝗲 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗠𝗼𝗻𝗲𝘆 💰 Raising capital can be expensive— legal fees, subscription agreements, and administrative costs add up quickly, especially when managing multiple small investors. Each new shareholder may require individual documentation, creating complexity that drives up costs. 📉 𝗛𝗼𝘄 𝗘𝗾𝘂𝗶𝘁𝘆 𝗥𝗼𝗹𝗹-𝗨𝗽𝘀 𝗥𝗲𝗱𝘂𝗰𝗲 𝗟𝗲𝗴𝗮𝗹 𝗖𝗼𝘀𝘁𝘀: One of the biggest advantages of Equity Roll-Ups is their cost-efficiency. Instead of negotiating and drafting individual agreements for each investor, an Equity Roll-Up consolidates all investors into one, meaning you only need one set of legal documents. This drastically reduces the administrative workload and legal fees associated with bringing in multiple investors. 🔄 𝗘𝗳𝗳𝗶𝗰𝗶𝗲𝗻𝗰𝘆 𝗶𝗻 𝗙𝘂𝘁𝘂𝗿𝗲 𝗥𝗼𝘂𝗻𝗱𝘀: Equity Roll-Ups can also be reused in subsequent funding rounds. Once set up, the Equity Roll-Up allows new investors to be added under the same structure, reducing the need for additional legal and administrative work each time you raise capital. 👥 𝗜𝗻𝘃𝗲𝘀𝘁𝗼𝗿 𝗕𝗲𝗻𝗲𝗳𝗶𝘁: For investors, being part of an Equity Roll-Up means fewer legal hurdles and simpler documentation, since they get to invest in promising startups without the headache of managing multiple individual shares. Equity Roll-Ups streamline the legal and administrative process, saving you both time and money as you scale. 👉🏻 Ready to simplify your capital-raising process? 🧐 Learn more about how Equity Roll-ups (ERUs) can help by reading our full article here: https://lnkd.in/gtHUzQR4 👉🏻 Jump on the platform to get started: https://lnkd.in/dpGcjPmi These are bold Unicode characters for the section titles.
