My experience in start ups started with CONQA, a quality assurance platform for construction. I was there for 10 years as a founder, growing the company to over 50 staff around NZ & Australia, and raising over $5M. Since leaving the day to day there in 2024, I've been involved in Mutu as a Director, and New & Improved Ventures as a Entrepreneur in Residence, as well as founding a new (stealth) PropTech company that has raised a seed round and is in development.
Coming from a background in product & growth, I currently head up the venture building team at Paloma Ventures. I've spent the last 5 years at Paloma building startups such as Chemcloud, Authsignal, & Planna acting as a de-facto cofounder to these ventures. Prior to joining Paloma, Seb was on the founding team of short term car insurance startup Lenny, backed by InMotion Ventures in London.
