Blackbird welcomed the news, as well as lists such as this that shed a light on the overall startup ecosystem. “‘The “hospitality mindset’ has always been at the heart of Blackbird – we work for our founders, they don’t work for us,” Tom Humphrey, partner at Blackbird told SmartCompany. Humphrey was awarded this new title just this week , having previously been a principal at the firm. “We appreciate initiatives like this as they help to demystify VC for the ecosystem and give us direct feedback on how we are performing. There’s always more work to be done.” Humphrey also expressed appreciation for seeing some lesser-known names on the list. “We’re excited to see some younger and newer firms getting acknowledged, as well as more specialist firms. The diversity of the funds on this list and the unique ways they each support their portfolio founders is a reflection of how much our ecosystem has blossomed,” he said. “Hopefully community resources like this will continue to grow and help Aussie founders feel more empowered.”
