Profile

Significant Capital Ventures (SCV) provides the earliest possible access to the innovations that will shape the future.

We invest in market-making applied technology from the research and innovations emanating from these labs and the university and regional eco-systems.

We partner with universities and incubators to invest early, from the source, where it matters and when it matters. We bring collaborative co-investors with us to build resources and depth, as well as funding, around the ventures we support.

Our investment objective is to source and invest seed and venture capital into early stage companies where the primary differentiator is commercialisation of applied technology and global scale up.

SCV has established direct partnerships with a network of Australia’s leading applied technology universities as a way of sourcing these opportunities and levering the R&D investment spend by universities in this sector.

Significant Capital Ventures (SCV) was established as a joint venture between the Australian National University (ANU) and the privately owned family office of the Hindmarsh family, a diversified property group. We have capital investment and strategic relationships with partners including ANU, UTS, Deakin, University of Wollongong.

The initial fund is an Early Stage Venture Capital Limited Partnership (ESVCLP) providing investors with access to attractive tax incentives on investments in this vibrant sector and business model.
