TranslateConnecting Australian Businesseswith the Capital They Need
BizDealRoom is Australia's leading platform for capital raising, business sales, and strategic transactions — serving private companies, startups, and ASX-listed businesses alike.
Built by an experienced business broker, financial planner, and finance expert with over $1 billion in transactions, BizDealRoom was designed from the ground up to solve the real challenges that business owners and their advisors face when going to market.
We provide the tools, data room infrastructure, and deal-ready resources that business owners and their professional advisors need to go to market with confidence. Whether you're raising your first capital round, seeking a strategic partner, or planning your exit, our platform gives you everything you need to present your opportunity to the right audience.
At the heart of our platform are our professional Data Rooms — secure, structured deal environments where business owners and their advisors can organise, store, and share critical business information with confidence. Paired with our AI-powered document creators, you can build investor-ready pitch decks, information memoranda, and business plans in a fraction of the time it would traditionally take — without the need for expensive advisors to get you started.
With a network of over 40,000 wholesale investors, sophisticated investors, strategic buyers, and family offices across Australia and internationally, we connect the right people with the right opportunities — at every stage of the business lifecycle.
We're not brokers. We don't advise on deals. Think of us as a professional listings platform meets institutional-grade data room — built specifically for business transactions. We're purpose-built to connect business owners, advisors, buyers, and investors in one place, and to give everyone the tools to transact smarter.
Built by Business Leaders, for Business Owners
BizDealRoom was co-founded in 2018 by Matt Holland and Mark Bouris as a 50-50 partnership with a clear mission: give established Australian businesses the same professional capital raising infrastructure that large corporations take for granted.
Mark Bouris—founder of Wizard Home Loans (sold for $500+ million), Executive Chairman of Yellow Brick Road, and one of Australia's most recognised business leaders—brought decades of financial services expertise, entrepreneurial insight, and market credibility to the partnership.
Matt Holland brought the vision and operational expertise to build a platform that would systematically connect quality businesses with wholesale capital, transforming the broken capital raising process that favoured large corporations over established private companies.
Traditional capital raising was broken. Business owners spent months networking, creating amateur pitch materials, and approaching investors blindly—with success rates below 10%. Meanwhile, thousands of wholesale investors struggled to discover quality opportunities in private companies outside their immediate networks.
The Holland-Bouris partnership solved both problems by creating a professional platform that prepares businesses properly, connects them with active investors, and manages the entire transaction process through secure, efficient systems.
As the platform proved its model and scaled successfully, Matt acquired majority ownership of BizDealRoom, taking full operational control while maintaining the collaborative relationship that leverages Mark's continued endorsement and market presence.
What started as a vision to democratise access to wholesale capital has facilitated over $1.4 billion in transactions across hundreds of Australian businesses—from manufacturing and construction to retail, services, franchises, and property development.

Built on a Foundation of Trust & Expertise
Matt Holland is the Founder and Managing Director of BizDealRoom, Australia's leading capital raising and deal management platform for private businesses and wholesale investors.
Matt co-founded BizDealRoom in 2018 as a 50-50 partnership with Mark Bouris, with a shared vision to democratise access to wholesale capital for established Australian businesses. Since acquiring majority ownership, Matt has scaled the platform to facilitate over $1.4 billion in capital transactions and built a network of 40,000+ wholesale and sophisticated investors.
"I watched countless profitable, well-run businesses struggle to raise capital not because they weren't investment-worthy, but because they couldn't connect with the right investors or present their opportunity professionally. Meanwhile, thousands of wholesale investors were desperate to find quality private company investments but had no systematic way to discover them."
Under Matt's leadership, BizDealRoom has pioneered the "deal engineering" approach—combining professional preparation, active investor matching, and complete transaction management—that delivers success rates dramatically higher than traditional capital raising methods.
"Our mission is simple. Every established Australian business that deserves capital should be able to access it professionally, efficiently, and without prohibitive fees. That's what we've built."
Mark Bouris is one of Australia's most respected business leaders, entrepreneur, and media personality. As co-founder of BizDealRoom, Mark brought decades of financial services expertise and entrepreneurial insight to the platform's foundation.
Mark and Matt launched BizDealRoom in 2018 as 50-50 partners, combining Mark's business credibility and market recognition with Matt's vision for democratising capital access. While Matt has since acquired majority ownership and leads day-to-day operations, the founding partnership established BizDealRoom's credibility in the market and continues to be valued by investors and business owners alike.
Mark continues to champion Australian entrepreneurship through Mentored.com.au, a platform helping business owners build better businesses through education and resources. The Mentored Podcast has become one of Australia's leading business podcasts, reaching thousands of business owners with practical insights and expert interviews.
"I want to introduce Matthew Holland, Managing Director of Mentored Business Sales. He's made a hugely successful business from creating a trusted, reputable business broking platform – helping to make selling a business in Australia or internationally quick and easy."
