OUR MISSION

To bring more ground breaking technologies,

innovations and companies to market, faster, succesfully and, deliver on the economic, social and investor returns they promise.

Australian thinking, research and innovation

leads the world, yet this inventiveness hasn't

translated into creating world leading companies. 

​

We're here to change that by providing inventors, researchers,founders and universities with not just the capital they need, but with the support and entrepreneurial resources to

turn their work into the businesses of the future.

​

SCV IS DIFFERENT TO MOST EARLY STAGE VENTURE CAPITAL

We identify, fund and commercialise ground 

breaking ideas, inventions, research and 

applied technologies from leading 

Australian universities and research labs. 

Every universities is commited to innovation but few have the resources and capabilities to consistently foster entrepreneurship and enable conversion of the R&D investment into lasting commercial outcomes.

WE PARTNER WITH UNIVERISITIES AT THE POINT OF INNOVATION 

Uncover and accelerate the transformative technologies made possible by the $11B annual investment in Australian research

We focus on creating businesses that lever the R&D investment and bring about the success stories and investor returns that drive lasting economic growth, attract talent, address social needs and build globally businesses that support our regional and national interests.

INVESTMENT STRATEGY

Deep tech innovation and discovery based on long, well funded R&D cycles, creates a technology advantage that is hard to replicate and for which Australia is globally recognised.

​

We invest in business created from commercialisation of these innovations.

​

We are sector agnostic, driven by the thematics that arise from he core capabilities of our partner universities.
