SYDNEY, Aug. 14, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — ASX-listed tech investment & advisory firm Scalare Partners has been announced as a finalist in the Startup Investor of the Year category at the prestigious 2025 Startup Daily Best in Tech Awards.
The recognition highlights Scalare’s innovative ecosystem-driven investment philosophy that transcends traditional capital deployment to build comprehensive support networks for emerging technology companies.
Through its integrated portfolio of owned platforms including Tech Ready Women, Startblock, InHouse Ventures, and the Australian Technologies Competition, Scalare creates a dynamic circular economy for innovation that generates sustainable revenue and reinvests capital into high-potential founders.
Carolyn Breeze, CEO of Scalare Partners, said: “We don’t just back startups, we build them. Our disruptive model demonstrates that capital alone doesn’t scale companies, ecosystems do. We’ve created a fully integrated support network that helps founders grow faster and smarter through strategic technology partnerships.”
Since January 2024, Scalare has executed six strategic investments in post-revenue, technology-led startups with global scaling potential, with investment amounts typically ranging from $100,000 to $1.5 million. Recent breakthrough investments include Circadian Health Innovations, a cutting-edge digital health platform leveraging artificial intelligence to optimize shift work productivity; Brauz, a revolutionary connected retail technology company bridging online and in-store shopping experiences; Catalyser, an advanced enterprise social impact platform; and BetterX, a Singapore-based B2B digital asset platform.
The company has also made strategic ecosystem investments, including the transformative acquisition of Tank Stream Labs and a $1.3 million acquisition of InHouse Ventures in March 2025. Scalare deepened its partnership with Silicon Catalyst US in May 2025, extending access to global deeptech and semiconductor networks for portfolio companies.
Scalare’s portfolio companies have achieved significant milestones following strategic investment. Brauz secured a national rollout with one of Australia’s largest retail brands, while BetterX completed a successful $2.3 million pre-Series A funding round in March 2025 to support expansion into Asia, the Middle East, and the United States.
The company’s commitment to diversity and inclusion sets it apart in the competitive venture capital landscape. Tech Ready Women has supported over 11,000 women across eight years, with 800+ female founders completing accelerator programs. Scalare’s leadership team, including female CEO, Chair, and CFO, reflects this commitment to building equality in the technology ecosystem.
With 18,000+ founders across its ecosystem and 400+ startups supported annually, Scalare provides retail investors unique access to early-stage investing without traditional capital lockups or the impending 30% tax liabilities that are likely to deter many investors from this category.
The Startup Daily Best in Tech Awards celebrate excellence in Australia’s technology sector, recognizing companies and individuals driving innovation and growth across the startup ecosystem.
