Founded and lead a $200M venture fund at NAB which has been established to invest in fintech start-ups. We're interested in global investments but will focus on start-up ideas/teams in the AU/NZ markets. Sectors for innovation include: payments, data, loans, personal finance, SMB management and blockchain. We believe that investment funds are only a part of the journey and that we can contribute a "NAB Advantage" to portfolio companies via access to customers and pilot tests. We're excited to talk to entrepreneurs who have big ideas and want to transform financial services.
