“I went to an Airtree founder event in 2015 on a rainy day in San Francisco and spent time with Craig and a number of other people on the team at the time… [My advice is to] go meet people because you don’t know where it’s going to lead. That was ten years ago, and it led to a role [as Partner at Airtree]," says Kelland Reilly.

Kell shared a range of insights with Vidit on The High Flyers Podcast, including:

🤝 The importance of customer service
🧑‍💻 His experience working in Silicon Valley
🦘 Why Aussies are well-liked overseas

The inspiration for Reejig came to Siobhan Savage while she was on mat leave from her HR Job at a global engineering firm 💡

She noticed wasted potential for talent across the business, endemic to many large-scale organisations. “It costs millions of dollars for organisations to be in a state where they’re hiring and letting go, hiring and letting go.”

Enter Reejig: a workforce intelligence platform using the world's first independently audited Ethical Talent AI for enterprise orgs 🚀

“What we’ve seen is more females being presented in the recommendations for succession planning, for hiring decisions, for pivots and promotions because we’ve removed those personal characteristics and it’s more about the skills and potentials of the individual.”

Congrats to Dianne (Di) Challenor, Macgregor Duncan and the Constantinople team on their $50m Series A round 🚀

Since 2022, Constantinople has been on a mission to radically simplify how banks run and operate. These fresh funds will be used to expand their reach beyond Australia, with the team aiming to be operational in five markets by 2027 🏦

“With Mac and Di at the helm, Constantinople is building an exceptional team with deep domain expertise and technical know-how. Along with their rigour and speed, this continues to be their greatest advantage,” says James Cameron, Partner at Airtree.

Many founders and execs love the idea of having a Chief of Staff but aren't sure how it works in practice. However, if you ask anyone who has had a CoS before, it’s unlikely they’ll ever go back to flying solo ✈️

So, how do you figure out if you need a CoS and what they should do? On the flip side, if you’re considering stepping into a CoS role, what do you need to know before you make the leap?

To help, we've pulled out our CoS guide from the Open Source VC archives, featuring input from Immutable COO Gillian Findlay and Head of Ops Emily Close (who previously worked as Gill’s CoS) 👇

Australia’s startups are growing faster than ever 🚀🇦🇺

From unicorns to breakout stars, expats returning, and a local ecosystem that celebrates the success of their mates, Aussie startups are on a roll.

Since the second iteration of our $100m+ startups chart in 2021, the number of Aussie startups valued at $100m+ has more than doubled 🤯

Check out the link in comments for the chart in numbers, a sector breakdown and valuation speedruns, including two companies that reached a $100m+ val in a year 👇
