Real Numbers Behind Venture Success
We track everything that matters in venture building. From early-stage metrics to long-term performance indicators, our data tells the story of what actually works in the Australian startup ecosystem.
Performance Metrics That Matter
These aren't vanity metrics. Every number represents real ventures, actual outcomes, and measurable progress in building sustainable businesses across Australia.
Behind the Numbers
Statistics tell part of the story, but the real insights come from understanding what drives these outcomes. After working with hundreds of entrepreneurs, we've identified patterns that separate successful ventures from those that struggle.
Market timing accounts for roughly 40% of success factors we track. Team composition and execution capability make up another 35%. The remaining 25% comes down to adaptability and resource management during critical growth phases.
Most interesting? Geographic location within Australia significantly impacts certain metrics, but not in ways you'd expect. Sydney and Melbourne don't always lead in our performance indicators.
