The state of (health) startup funding & want to come to a Women in Healthtech Dinner?
Funds, fun & food yo - does life get any better?!
Oh hey, twice in one week - say what?! I promise it’s worth it…
Tuesday, our friends Cut Through Venture & Folklore Ventures released a little (lol, ok, not little… 89 pages but still) report on The State of Australian Startup Funding 2022.
Looks like funding is down, but we’re still not out… yet.
Nah, in all seriousness though. Theres some seriously epic insights and great takeaways. Then, they went and stupidly let people like me contribute some ramblings. But, nothing is perfect…
For those who are lazy like me and want a short version, here are some pretty graphs that give a great overview
Then, the TLDR of the things to know
Oh, look - health stuff!

On a more fun (and food-filled) note! 💃
We’re hosting some curated “WTH - Women in Healthtech” Dinners in Melbourne and Sydney! 💕
Melbourne - you get to go first.
The goal? To bring together brilliant women from across the space for a (kind of) fancy night ft. fab connections, conversations and of course food
It’s invite-only, with a cap of 28 but…
We have 5 spots for women from our epic WTH readership crew 😊 🙌 (that’s you!)
Want to come?!👇
