Launceston, TAS
Every published round Startup Bootcamp took part in, and every parcel of existing shares it bought off another holder. Deals we hold but haven't published yet are not counted, and a place in one of its own programs is under Cohorts.
Everyone Startup Bootcamp has named to a program in published coverage. A place in a program is not a raise: the cheque is the figure recorded with the place, which is the program's standard terms where we hold them, and a blank is one we don't.
Companies Startup Bootcamp has backed in a published round, and companies whose existing shares it bought off another holder.
