Kate Cornick is the Chief Executive Officer of LaunchVic.

Kate has a very interesting background from competitive sport, through to studying engineering and launching her own app.

For the last 7 years she has been the CEO of Launch VIC.

Kate has always had a mentality of giving it a go and throwing her hat in the ring. She talks about the opportunities that come with being one of few women in the room, and she shares her tips on how to survive and thrive.

This interview covers a number of important topics, including:

• Having a risk appetite, betting on yourself and giving it a go
• How to find the right support and programs to progress your start-up
• The importance of customer insights and product-market fit, and
• The ideal size of investment that you should be seeking to give yourself the runway to demonstrate success.
