NEWS & UPDATES

Aussie startups are raising faster and younger in 2025

After a post-2021 slump, new data shows Australian startups are hitting later funding rounds (Series B and C) at much younger company ages in 2025. The median time to reach a Series C round has fallen to 6.6 years (down from 8.3 last year), indicating renewed momentum as investor confidence returns.

Our take: The funding freeze is thawing, but only for startups with solid traction – speed matters, but fundamentals still reign in winning investor support.

RBA cuts interest rates to two-year low as inflation cools

Australia’s central bank reduced the cash rate by 0.25% to 3.85% in May, marking the first drop below 4% in two years. It’s the RBA’s second rate cut of 2025, a sharp policy turn after 13 consecutive hikes through 2022–2023, reflecting easing inflation and concern over global uncertainties.
Our take: Cheaper money offers relief for businesses and borrowers, but prudent operators will use this breathing room to fortify against still-uncertain global economic currents.

Our take: Founders and COOs can leverage fractional executives to scale operations smartly,  part-time leaders integrate well with the team for maximum impact.
