The CSIRO Innovation Fund (managed by and trading as Main Sequence Ventures) is a deeptech fund, investing in companies translating research into global-scale businesses. Main Sequence Ventures knows that this takes more than money. We have our genesis in CSIRO and have access to a deep well of data scientists, physicists, synthetic biologists, chemists, astronomers and experts in other disciples. Each member of the management team has been an entrepreneur and understands the difficulties of building a company. We are here to help. We work harder to understand the world that these founders imagine. We are as comfortable in the lab as we are on the front-line with customers. We will invest capital, and ourselves, to systematically reduce risk and increase opportunity by combining the operational velocity of startups with the deep curiosity of Australia's research sector.
