From Founder to VC and all the mistakes in between.

Starting, funding, exit.

Hey Startup Grind fam - our next event is happening on the {{date}} of August, and this month we’re going to cover everything to do with getting funded.

Our special guest is the one and only Nick Crocker.

Nick is a serial entrepreneur, having founded two startups (Sessions and We Are Hunted), which were acquired by MyFitnessPal and Twitter respectively.

Now, Nick is the General Partner at Blackbird (one of Australia's top VCs), and runs their Melbourne office.

He also sits on the boards of multiple companies such as Culture Amp, Dovetail, Applied, Eucalyptus, and XY Sense

In the fireside chat (with our very own David Kenney), we’ll explore topics around:

How to build a business that captures the attention of industry leaders
Top lessons and “secrets” learnt on the road to successful exits and acquisitions
What Nick looks for in Blackbird’s investments, and what makes certain businesses and founders appealing (or unappealing) for VCs
And everything in between (from startup to investment to exit)

As always, you'll have the opportunity to engage with Nick, ask your burning questions, and network with fellow entrepreneurs. Plus, we'll have our customary drinks and nibbles to fuel the great conversations.

Spots are strictly limited, and we'd hate for you to miss out, so book your tickets ASAP.

Can't wait to see you there!
