We are a community-powered, industry agnostic VC fund investing in Australian and New Zealand based startups that have $100m+ revenue ambition. We invest at the earliest stages, once you’re ready to turn “after work” into “work”.
Our investment process is imbued with a deep respect for founders’ time, intel, and courage. Founders are frequently subject to hellish, drawn-out due diligence processes, only to be unceremoniously knocked back despite their best efforts. We made a commitment to turn up for founders, and have designed a highly transparent process which adds value at every step.
Our community is rallied around a shared goal: to invest in the next generation of Australia and New Zealand startups at the very earliest stage, and then support them on their long and arduous journey from improbability to outlier success. Our hivemind is our bedrock and our edge.

Revolution serves to represent and champion a diverse set of customers. In an industry where beauty norms have only just begun to be challenged, Revolution Beauty has been breaking down these rules and standing for inclusivity since the day it was born.
Revolution’s commitment to inclusivity spans everything it does – from building consumer feedback into product development, to featuring our own employees, super fans and content creators in all brand communications, shunning unrealistic perfection and models in favour of real people, real beauty.
We believe everyone should celebrate diversity, embrace imperfection, respect self-expression and support beauty in its many shapes and forms. To us, an open mind is powerful, it’s beautiful, it’s strong for being able to see beyond the obvious and embrace the unfamiliar.
Being part of Team Revolution means living and breathing everything we stand for, uniting in our common goal. We ask our team to share ideals, to listen and respect different opinions, to support, learn and grow as one team.
We are the Revolution. We fight for quality, we fight for speed, we fight for diversity.
We rebel against elitism and exclusivity.
We believe in your voice, your needs, your wants.
YOU are the Revolution
