Pre-matched for you by our experts and chosen by you through our efficient and easy-to-use events platform. And all at no cost to you, thanks to our amazing sponsors.
As a not-for-profit, Catalyst provides intelligent and highly focused sources of fund-matching for high growth-potential innovation companies. This includes graduates from Catalyst’s Co-Founders, INVENT, Springboard and Way to Scale programmes and suitable companies referred to us by trusted sources who will go through a suitability test.
We do the hard work for you!
Once accepted into the process, the individual company’s funding journey will be profiled and support will be provided to prepare the company for funding, pitches and due diligence.
The matching process is personalised to each participating company and investor. Based on your investment thesis, we will set up a select number of robust engagements for you. You will get the opportunity to view one-page summaries from each company attending and request your own meetings in the afternoon (via the events platform).
Ultimately, it is always up to the participating company and funding source to agree and finalise a deal. Catalyst can provide information based on its extensive experience, but it does not provide advice.
