We Seek Resilience. We Provide Opportunity.
Backbone Partners invests in immigrant founded technology companies from day one
Immigrant Founded
We believe immigrants have the resilience, drive and passion it takes to succeed. Our mission is to accelerate success through our active support and networks.
Technology Companies
We focus on fast scaling technology companies as this is where our expertise lies. Our Venture Partners include successful technology company founders and investors who provide active support.
Day One
We invest at the earliest stage. We invest in lines not dots, so we want to get to know founders and their competitive advantage as well as our ability to add value before investing.
Global Ambition
Great business ideas start in Australia and we’re focussed on companies solving global problems with global opportunities.
Competitive Advantage
We dive deep into your competitive advantage. We work hard to support founders with our network but the key to success is the unique expertise that only founders can bring.
Customer Love
We seek products that customers will love, not like. An indispensable product that your customers can’t live without because it solves a meaningful problem beautifully.
We Provide Secondary Solutions For Founders, Funds And Investors
Bespoke liquidity solutions for exiting investors and an investor of choice for companies who are seeking to exit in the medium term
Direct Secondaries
We Provide founders and (early) investors with liquidity before a company exit with the ability to provide subsequent investment if required. We collaborate with founders to plan and execute an exit.
LP Secondaries
We can acquire direct secondaries, fund positions, or both from investors seeking liquidity. Exit horizon is of paramount importance for any portfolio sale.
GP Secondaries
Acquire full portfolios or subsets of portfolios near the end of a fund’s life, enabling GPs to deliver DPI to their investors. We collaborate with VCs and their portfolio companies on exit planning and execution.
