New partnership connects Curtin researchers with start-up ‘angels’
Innovation Central Perth (ICP) based at Curtin University has partnered with Perth Angels and South West Angels to connect early career researchers with a community of start-up investors in Western Australia.
Commencing in 2021, the new partnership will connect PhD students and postdoctoral researchers with WA networks looking to invest in emerging entrepreneurs, founders and business owners.
As part of the project, Curtin researchers will have access to two not-for-profit investor networks – South West Angels which helps start-ups in regional WA, and Perth Angels, which connects metropolitan entrepreneurs – to help evaluate pitches made by emerging start-ups.
