In business, capital alone isn’t enough. What truly accelerates growth is partnerships that unlock scale, networks, and opportunity. The right collaboration doesn’t just provide funding—it delivers access to resources, knowledge, and connections that would otherwise take years to build. Dr. Christian Baylis, Founder of Fortlake, shares how a unique collaboration with Colonial First State (backed by KKR) transformed his business: “Part of the capital story of us.. wasn’t just money. It was intellectual capital, marketing capital, operational capital. A great strategic partner can mean so much more than just a cheque.” — Dr. Christian Baylis At #CapTech2025, you’ll do more than listen—you’ll connect directly with industry leaders, fund managers, and innovators who understand the power of collaboration.

Behind every successful investment lies one constant: trust. Trust is the foundation that turns vision into reality, transforms a bold idea into a viable strategy, and gives investors the confidence to commit their capital. Without it, even the strongest business plan can falter. With it, opportunities expand, partnerships flourish, and success becomes sustainable. Mr Rod McGeoch, Patron of #CapTech2025, shares why investors must look beyond bold visions and ensure alignment, clarity, and relationships that last. In this conversation, you’ll discover: “You’ve got to convince me that you’ve got a plan as well as a vision for me to invest… You’re asking people for their money. They’ve got to be able to trust you with it and be convinced you’ll know what to do with it.” — Rod McGeoch AO, LLB Join us at #CapTech2025 to connect with leaders who live these principles every day.
