Cloud-based unified talent management solution provider Seera has managed to entice former Xero Australia head honcho Chris Ridd as an investor as it eyes a listing on the Australian Securities Exchange next year.
The start-up, launched by former Seek CIO Brad Birchall, isn’t just interested in the undisclosed sum put into it by Mr Ridd, but is also looking to him for advice in an official capacity.
Mr Birchall said recruiting top shelf technology talent like Mr Ridd, with over 30 years of industry experience, including senior leadership roles with Xero and Microsoft, was a real coup for Seera.
“Chris is recognised as a true technology industry heavyweight who intimately understands what it takes for a cloud solution to go from start-up to ASX listing.
“We are thrilled Chris has joined the Seera team, both as an investor and as an adviser. Chris’s experience as MD of Xero is perfectly aligned with our growth strategy, and will be instrumental in our current capital raising and IPO plans.”

For decades, the playbook for Australia’s wholesale investors has remained relatively unchanged: pick between the slow-moving, illiquid reliability of tangible assets like property and gold, or chase the frictionless, high-velocity liquidity of public equity and digital markets. But as macroeconomic volatility spikes and a structural housing deficit reshapes private debt demand, sophisticated investors are demanding […]
