Rohan Workman came up through corporate recovery during the 2008 financial crisis, then co-founded and sold the startup RosterCloud before building the Melbourne Accelerator Program into one of the top accelerators in the world, giving him a background as an operator and institution-builder rather than a typical investor. At Skalata, he has paused new investments to rework his decision-making around AI, questions whether revenue still proves a real edge when a new AI model can wipe it out overnight, and describes venture investing as building strong portfolios rather than trying to pick single winners, while having worked as a founder, accelerator leader, and fund operator all at once.
