Testimonials
"I was fortunate to spend four weeks interning at Bluemount Capital’s [and Funding Strategies'] Brisbane office. This is an experience that was both transformative and inspiring. From the moment I stepped into the office, I felt a genuine sense of belonging, as though I had joined a close-knit family. The team was not only funny and kind but also remarkably driven. They maintained a warm atmosphere while simultaneously rolling up their sleeves to deliver exceptional results. This blend of light-heartedness and professionalism truly defined my entire internship."

"We really valued Mark’s thoughtful insights across all aspects of our business strategy. He brings a rare combination of clarity, creativity, deep experience in finance and strategic planning and operational experience — sharp non-nonsense thinking with a genuinely collaborative approach."
"Funding Strategies introduced me to this opportunity as part of a growth funding round. I happily invested realising that the founders, Travis and Bianca Brown would remain part of the company. Mark explained the deal, opportunity and potential risks and I invested as a diversified wholesale investor.
The process was efficient and together, the company was built over the next three years with an exit of multiple of invested capital.
Another great deal done. Thanks for the invitation to participate Mark."

"Our experience with Funding Strategies has been invaluable. Mark, Birgit, Stephen and their colleagues made an exceptional team. You can expect a professional, prompt, organised and personal approach when working with Funding Strategies. They also went out of their way to spend valuable time with us to talk us through each process so we understood very clearly the steps of our capital raise and both the short-term and long-term strategies for our company. We highly recommend Funding Strategies and look forward to working with the team again." To find out more about Instant Consult, please click here.

Mark and Stephen presented a considered approach to our capital raise leveraging their years of experience. We have encountered most of the team in our time with FS and they all convey the same willingness and commitment to our project as do the leaders. We continue to partner with FS and recommend them to other businesses looking for an elite team."

They structured all the documentation and strategy to ensure we got a variety of interested parties. They got the job done and we won't hesitate to work with them again."
“I think you guys have done a stellar job on the teaser, that clearly has taken a lot of work, and I needed someone with perspective to write that, so thanks again.“
