Founder and Managing Partner at Waterpoint Lane

You may not be C.E.O forever – Ben Gibbons

“A leader of an organization potentially, depending on the individual, should change and transition along the way . So the technical founder early on may not be the right founder or may not be the right leader for the organization post scaling up and growing. So having the self-awareness around that, I think, is critical.”

ABOUT

Focused career on investment banking and consulting support to growth stage and middle market companies with extensive experience across mergers and acquisitions, debt, equity and alternate capital financing transactions. Having grown up on a predominantly sheep and wheat farm in central New South Wales in Australia (Waterpoint Lane was the road leading up to the farm), in 2019, I re-established his connection with the land and sustainability of our food supply.

I see a need and an opportunity to drive change in the way we think about our food supply that secures a lasting and sustainable legacy for future generations.

I will focus on investing WPL’s equity and alternative capital through a limited partnership / co-investment structure to enterprises focused on the sustainable food system. Additional support will be provided to portfolio companies through business planning, strategy and growth advisory services.
