Founders

"The experience with Venture Konnect has been nothing short of refreshing. The individuals we interacted with were open and committed to doing business. Their process, if successful, will pave the way for us to showcase Australia's talent on an international stage, reinforcing that compliance and regulation can indeed be a source of innovation and for us to become the defacto standard for Compliance as digital twins globally. Venture Konnect is a catalyst for turning our global vision into reality."

- Siobhaine Slevin, Co-Founder of Realta Logic

Venture Konnect provides a service that takes your company’s unique profile and aligns it with the corporates who are looking for your specific expertise or technology.

You'll receive a personal invitation to meet with the right executive, maximising your chances of establishing a fruitful connection.

You will be charged a fee of $650 + GST on a monthly basis, once we believe we’ve found one or more corporate matches for you.

The program is free for residents of Stone & Chalk. 

You will only start paying the subscription once we believe we’ve found one or more corporate matches.

At that point, we will send you an email notifying you of the match(es) and asking you to fill out the onboarding form, which will include billing details.

For the first month, you will be charged on a pro-rata basis from the date your subscription starts until the first day of the next month.

After that time, you will be charged on the first day of each month. 

The first time you subscribe, we ask for a three-month commitment. After the first three months, you’re free to cancel at any time. 

Stone & Chalk residents receive Venture Konnect as a part of their package. On the day you become a resident and start paying your residency fee, we will stop your paid Venture Konnect subscription. 

If you decide to cease being a Stone & Chalk resident, you will have the choice to stay as a Venture Konnect member.

We’ll then start billing you for the Venture Konnect subscription on the day your residency stops).

The matching process varies depending on the compatibility between your company and corporate strategies. Our team actively works to find the best match, and you could be introduced to suitable corporates as quickly as within a few hours of joining.

However, you won’t be charged anything until we’ve found at least one match for you.

We analyse their strategies, needs and intentions to make sure they are genuinely interested in collaborating with, or investing, in your company.
