Boom in numbers of VC firms and accelerators shows Aussie market is maturing says Artesian s Jeremy Colless SmartCompany

The number of venture capital firms in Australia has increased by 70% over the past three years, while number of accelerators and incubators have more than doubled, according to data from Decode System, a data and networking platform owned by venture capital firm Artesian.

But Jeremy Colless, managing partner and chief executive of Artesian and founder of Decode, says while the growth reflects a maturing of the market, it’s this kind of data that’s key to maintaining it.
