- **Event Description**: We think Australian startups deserve more than 0.2% of a $250 billion market. These are the founders changing that.About this EventBetween 2022 and 2025, 44 Australian startups won $563 million in federal government contracts. Sounds impressive until you realise the federal government spent $347 billion over the same period; that's 0.16 cents in every dollarConfidential Capital exists because while that number is embarrassing, it is fixable. On 29 April in Canberra, Pinery Capital is proud to present four founders who are already winning the government market.Four companies. Four pitches. One room.Pinery Capital has brought together four founders who share our belief that government is the most undervalued market in Australia. Each invited founder will have up to seven minutes to describe how they are addressing a problem for governments, followed by direct Q&A.

                "description": "Mat is Managing Partner of Pinery Capital, Australia's first GovTech-focused syndicate, on a mission to crack Australia's $100B+ government procurement market. His research into the $3.4B software segment reveals that of 374 Australian startups that raised funding in FY24-25, they captured just 0.7% of government contracts—a systematic underinvestment that's costing Australia's sovereign technology capability.With numerous direct startup investments including companies  including Amber,  Aquila, Canva  &  Ocenafamrand others, Mat is now laser-focused on government technology. His first GovTech investment, Aquila, represents his commitment to backing startups that can crack the government market.Mat believes Australian startups deserve more than 0.7% of a $3.4B market. His mission: make GovTech the growth engine it should be, not the afterthought it is.He holds an MBA from AGSM (UNSW) and Bachelor of Management from UniSA. Mat is building a community of investors who share his vision that more Australian startups should be winning in government."
