Archangel is an early stage venture capital fund investing in Australian startups. We work with great technology founders and investors to build game changing companies together. The Archangel team is a rare combination of experienced start-up operators and investors with broad networks and complimentary skills. Most importantly, like the founders we back, we believe that this is our life’s work. Despite record levels of capital flowing into venture in recent years, large VCs deploy the majority of their funds at Series A or later. Archangel is different, we deploy most of our funds in pre-seed and seed investments and our people, investment strategy and culture are built around sourcing the very best early-stage deals and assisting those founders to build better companies in their formative first years. Ask some of our founders and they will tell you what sets us apart; - Our empathy and understanding of the founders journey (our team has been there themselves) - Our ability to move quickly and decisively with minimal distraction to the business - Our willingness to give pointed business guidance and advice and begin the process of transitioning from a visionary founder to a world-beating CEO - Introductions to industry insiders for specialized knowledge and advice - Introductions to later stage VCs in Australia and abroad and assistance in preparing for future fund raises Our considerable experience and expertise in round 1 investing allows us to be supportive high value partners and create big wins for the founders and investors we serve.

Were a global online visual communications platform on a mission to empower the world to design. Featuring a simple drag-and-drop user interface and a vast range of templates ranging from presentations, documents, websites, social media graphics, posters, apparel to videos, plus a huge library of fonts, stock photography, illustrations, video footage, and audio clips, anyone can take an idea and create something beautiful on Canva on any device, from anywhere in the world. Since our launch in 2013, we’ve had the crazy big goal of making design accessible to everyone. We were founded on the belief that people shouldnt need to understand complex software to unlock their creativity. We’re leveling the playing field and democratizing access to design and visual communication by empowering 100% of the world to communicate in a way that was once limited to the 1%. Weve always had a deeper mission surrounding Canva — which we talk about as our simple two-step plan: to build one of the world’s most valuable companies, and to do the most good we possibly can. Were committed to our core value of Being a Force for Good, so as the value of our company grows, so too does our ability to have a positive impact on the world.
