Cremorne Connect: Behind The Deal

Our partner Cremorne Digital Hub is hosting Cremorne Connect: Behind the Deal - How Corporate Development Really Works. A candid conversation on how strategic partnerships, acquisitions, and early-stage investments really happen inside Australia's leading tech companies.

Hear from industry veterans:

• Vlad Gagovic – Ex-Head of Corp Dev at Car Group & Envato
• Stephanie Martin – Corp Dev Executive at REA Group
• Moderated by Alan Tsen - GM at Cremorne Digital Hub

They’ll share what catches their attention, what makes them pass, and what startups need to know to spark the right conversations - and build momentum.

You’ll get an inside look at how corporate development teams identify opportunity, assess potential, and decide whether a startup is worth engaging with. Learn what makes someone pick up the phone, what separates a compelling startup from the noise, and how to build the kind of relationship that leads to real outcomes - whether that’s a partnership, investment, or acquisition.

Perfect for founders, BD leads, innovation teams, and anyone curious about how the big dogs get deals done!

Free to attend (drinks + nibbles provided).
