Melbourne has 330 investors in the Robynhood database, Australia's second market after Sydney. Fintech leads at 68, and the sector spread is noticeably broader than Sydney's for a smaller city.

Broader than Sydney, and more design-led

68 in fintech, 63 in healthtech, 58 in AI/ML — but also 25 in e-commerce, 21 in cleantech, 20 in proptech and 19 in edtech. Melbourne distributes across more categories than Sydney does.

The city's startup community is more consumer and design-oriented than Sydney's financial-services tilt. Several of Australia's best-known consumer companies were built here, and their alumni now invest.

Together the two cities hold 871 investors, and most Australian raises work both.

Reach

149 of 330 have a verified email — 45%.

Australia's small community means reputation carries. Approach Melbourne and Sydney in a deliberate order rather than blasting both at once.
