Australia’s technology and SaaS sector is rapidly evolving, driven by shifting capital dynamics, changing investor expectations, and an increasing demand for sustainable, scalable business models.
As founders, CFOs, and boards shift their focus from early-stage growth to long-term strategy, the ability to adapt and plan effectively has never been more important.
Preparing for what’s next
This report explores the decisions that matter most as you grow – from assessing capital and engaging investors, to positioning for exit or long-term value creation. While private equity (PE), Initial Public Offerings (IPOs), and divestments continue to be important pathways, success increasingly depends on more than headline metrics. Investors look for strong fundamentals, a clear route to profitability, and a business story that demonstrates long-term potential.
What investors look for
Annual Recurring Revenue (ARR) and customer retention are just the starting point. A strong Rule of 40 score, clear market fit, valuable intellectual property, and an effective leadership team are essential. But what ultimately sets a business apart is a credible, well-defined plan for long-term, profitable growth.
