Venture Capital, Startup & Take-off funds

We have been asked by our members to provide suggestions about where in the Australian economy is the best place for a small to medium-sized corporation to seek funds (Loan and/or Equity) to enable them to undertake a start-up or take-off development. Our answer has been that there is no easy answer to this question. You may feel that it is urgent that you grow your business but unless you do the work necessary to understand the different alternatives available to you, you could be putting your business at risk. Here we provide some links that may assist that research. Venture capital, loan funds, equity partners, equity investors, capital investors.
