Airtree Ventures is a Sydney-based venture capital firm that deploys early-stage capital into technology companies across Australia and New Zealand. The firm has backed more than 120 portfolio companies and manages over $2 billion in assets. Its geographic focus is concentrated in the ANZ region, with operations centered in Sydney.
For engineers evaluating venture-backed startups, Airtree's portfolio spans the broader technology sector without restriction to a single vertical. The firm emphasizes hands-on collaboration with founders, providing operational resources alongside capital at the early stage. Airtree also runs programs and communities for founders, operators, and investors in the region, and has adopted an "open source VC" model where it shares its thinking and processes publicly.
Airtree takes a long-term view on company building, with a stated mission to democratize access to capital and expertise for founders in Australia and New Zealand. Teams backed by the firm gain access to a network and support infrastructure intended to help scale from early-stage through growth.
