Australian Business Growth Fund
Overview
Australian Business Growth Fund is a government-backed initiative investing in Australian small and medium-sized enterprises to support their growth and development. The fund provides flexible growth capital, taking minority stakes of up to 49% in businesses, with investments ranging from $5 million to $15 million. It focuses on sectors such as technology, healthcare, manufacturing, consumer goods, financial services, energy, education, agriculture, retail, construction, transport, media, telecommunications, real estate, and utilities. ABGF's unique public-private partnership model, facilitated by an alliance between the Federal Government and six leading banks, bridges a critical gap in the market between venture capital and private equity. The fund's mission goes beyond financial investment, bringing together capital, capability, and connections, while only taking a minority stake in the business, leaving the business in control.
