Not the biggest news week, and I’ve been on the road myself (literally). Driving down from Sydney to Melbourne, and I think I’ve cracked the perfect time to leave, especially with a 2 year old for any other parents that might be reading this.
We beat the traffic to get out Sydney and got a good 2-3 hours on the motorway before the little one woke up - one stop for breakfast and a bit of playtime and back on the road and in Melbourne by 2:30pm with the nap just ending.
I’m sure there’s a lesson in there for how to be better at B2B Sales.
On a more serious note, you may have seen I recently joined Cut Through Angels as a Partner - the angel investing syndicate of Cut Through Venture.
We’ve just gone live with a new deal in the healthtech sector with a really exciting female founded startup - if you’re a sophisticated investor and interested let me know and I can share details on how to join the syndicate to learn more.
