Our Funds

Multiple vehicles. One platform. One philosophy.

MAD deploys capital through a growing suite of fund vehicles, all operating within the same thesis of Restoration, Transition, and Transformation.

MAD Fund 1 · Australia

Growth capital for Australian companies with global potential.

MAD Fund 1 is the flagship deployment vehicle within the MAD platform. It is designed to back Australian growth-stage companies operating in sectors connected to Restoration, Transition, and Transformation.

These are companies working on real problems across food, energy, health, water, waste, resilience, and regenerative systems. They have moved beyond concept and need growth capital, strategic support, and ecosystem access to scale.

Australia's missing middle: too advanced for early-stage capital, not yet served by traditional venture.

Investment focus sectors

Food and agriculture
Energy and grid transition
Health and longevity
Water and resource security
Waste and circular economy
Climate resilience and infrastructure
Regenerative materials and systems
AI-enabled real-world systems

Fund mechanics at a glance

Tax-advantaged design

Structured for tax-efficient outcomes for eligible Australian wholesale and sophisticated investors, within applicable frameworks.

Portfolio companies access Venture Compass, the Mastermind, ambassadors, advisory bench, and the broader MAD ecosystem.

Fund principles

Six principles guiding how we deploy capital.

01

Capital fit for purpose

Capital should match the stage, rhythm, and growth needs of the company, not force it into a structure that serves the fund above the business.

02

Structured growth capital

The fund uses structured instruments where appropriate, supporting income potential and reducing reliance on binary exit outcomes.

03

Equity upside

The model preserves participation in the growth of selected portfolio companies alongside income distributions.

04

Founder alignment

MAD supports founders without forcing unnecessary dilution or distorting the mission of the company.

05

Platform support

Portfolio companies can access Venture Compass, advisory support, ambassadors, operators, and the broader MAD ecosystem.

06

Impact integration

Companies are assessed on financial potential and on the systems they strengthen and the problems they solve.

MAD Singapore Growth Fund · Global

A global pathway, structured through Singapore.

The MAD Singapore Growth Fund is being developed as the global capital pathway alongside the Australian MAD Fund 1.

It is being structured through Singapore to support international capital efficiency and global tax treatment for non-Australian investors, and to act as a coherent conduit through which global capital can engage the MAD philosophy and ultimately participate in the MAD Fund strategy.

One philosophy. Two complementary vehicles. Australian and global investors served through structures appropriate to each.

The MAD Singapore Growth Fund is in development and is not currently open for investment.

Designed to deliver

Tax-efficient access for global capital
A conduit into the MAD Fund strategy
Exposure to MAD's developing global pipeline
Singapore as an Asia-Pacific capital hub

Catalytic Capital

For philanthropic and mission-aligned capital partners.

MAD has a specific pathway for philanthropic families, foundations, and mission-aligned capital partners who want to act as catalysts, unlocking larger pools of private, institutional, and government-aligned investment.

Catalytic capital is not charity. It is signal capital. The first dollar that absorbs early uncertainty and makes larger capital movements possible.

Eligible investors can request a private briefing and access to detailed fund documentation.

MAD. Entrepreneurs Making A Difference

A capital platform backing growth-stage companies applying new science and engineering to restore the systems humanity depends on.
