Last week, we had the privilege of hosting the EVP Annual Investor Event at the iconic Art Gallery NSW – an unforgettable experience! We were thrilled to hear from two dynamic entrepreneurs: Conor Hagan, founder of Explorate, and Adam Theobald, founder of Ordermentum. They shared their compelling journeys of resilience, navigating the challenges of Covid, and the strategies they've implemented to not only survive but thrive in the ever-changing business landscape. Their insights into the future were bold and inspiring. A big thank you to all who attended, and to our incredible portfolio companies who continue to lead with innovation and drive.

🎉Massive welcome to the newest rockstar investor on our team – Jenny Chen! 🎉 Please meet Jenny – Jenny is awesome. (No, seriously. We checked.) She joins us straight from J.P. Morgan, where she was unofficially the funniest and most engaging person on the team. Fast facts about Jenny: She loves F1 and attacks challenges like a Formula 1 driver in a hairpin turn – fast, focused, and maybe a little sideways.💪 She’s got a mean tennis forehand – challenge her if you dare! 🌍Born in China, Chinese culture has influenced and informed her perspective on life and business. Fun fact: her parents weren’t too keen on her going into tech initially, but now they’re #1 fans (we hope, we didn't check on this point). She runs on coffee and sarcasm - both are equally essential at EVP. So, show Jenny some love, and let’s give her a warm EVP welcome! 👏 https://lnkd.in/gmnBbB7p

Congratulations team AutoGrab on this critical partnership with JATO Dynamics! The team are kicking massive goals with big plans ahead for 2024 🚀🚀🚀
🚀 Today, we’re very pleased to announce our partnership with JATO Dynamics Building AutoGrab from the ground up and tackling the auto industry's complex challenges has been no small feat. It's demanded an incredible team, supportive friends, and choosing partners who align with our vision. JATO are all of the above. Their expertise and global reach make them the ideal ally as we venture into new territories, including our strategic expansion into the UK. 🇬🇧 🚙 Vehicles are evolving at an unprecedented pace, with advancements like ADAS features, intricate safety systems, and bespoke options becoming standard. This complexity demands a deeper understanding and visibility of their unique attributes. We as an industry have to ensure that every car's story is told in full or we risk undervaluing their true potential and even their safety. This partnership brings us closer to a future where the stories are known, where insurers can assess assets with precision, and where the industry as a whole benefits from better transparency and better data. Think of it as creating a comprehensive passport for every vehicle, shedding light on every detail you need to know. Thanks to Jared Lynch at The Australian for capturing our vision, and to Peadar Walsh and the team at JATO for being pivotal in this journey. Here's to shaping the future of automotive intelligence, together. https://lnkd.in/dA_FaFD4 https://lnkd.in/dXqhnqfa #automotive #insurancetech #innovation #usedcars
