SIV's

[Dean Collins]

Anyone in Australia actively trying to fund their startup using SIV’s as part of their visa investments? - http://www.nortonrosefulbright.com/knowledge/publications/139347/nsw-land-tax-exemption-for-developersnew-incentives-for-investors-in-early-stage-venture-capital-funds

 

Or too hard to network/setup?

Hi Dean,

SIV venture money needs to go into ESVCLP registered funds so the hope is that there will be more capital for those funds to invest. I don't see any visa advantages for foreign investors putting money into startups direct.

Cheers,

Craig
