Performance VC retreats are designed specifically for founders and their investors and this is no ordinary retreat. You'll access new insights and energy with the help of exceptional facilitation, unlocked with a non-traditional approach.
Building a company demands everything - your focus, your energy, your resilience. Investing in these companies requires all this too. But even the highest-performing founders and investors carry things that quietly hold them back. You know you're capable of more.
An experience designed to leave you clear, energised, and fresh. If things are a bit tough, make them easier with a clear path. If things are great, an out of this world experience to make them even better.
Our next retreat runs from 1pm on Saturday 7th February, until 1pm Sunday 8th February 2026 in Brisbane. Onsite accommodation and meals included. Just bring you, and a curious mind.
2026 dates:
- 7th to 8th Feb
- 23rd to 24th May
- 29th to 20th August
- 21st to 22nd November

We assure you that you've never been to a retreat like this. Led by 3 world class facilitators, you'll create a transformational experience like no other. The founders and investors in the room are on similar journeys and you'll see and feel things differently. Your experience will be assisted with non-traditional approaches to performance transformation. We recommend listening to the Performance VC Podcast to better understand what this all means.
Participants consistently describe:
And just as importantly - a community they can lean on moving forward.
Lol, no. No cults here. The retreat has been built by investors and founders to help unlock new energy, and help resolve the common challenges. Founders and investors have to do pretty extraordinary things to succeed in this world, so we've created an extraordinary retreat to help.
Everything we do is grounded in:
Nothing is forced. Nothing is performative. You engage at your own pace.
Our retreats are held approximately 50min from Brisbane airport. Most participants are able to fly in the morning of the retreat and we can help with transport. Perth participants will need to arrive the night prior. We recommend flights home are not booked before 5pm to allow plenty of time to relax and chill out. Best practise would be to fly home the following day, but sometimes you just got to get back to achieving greatness.
Expect to have an experience like you've never had before.
Expect to have identified and worked through what ever you want to unpack in safe space, surrounded by people on the same journey.
Expect not to have to share anything and be able to work through things in your own head. If you do share, expect that others may have insights that can help you.
Expect that you'll have insights that will help others too.
Expect to come in thinking something was a certain way, and leaving with different perspective.
Expect to create a deep connection and friendship with the other founders and investors.
Expect a lot of laughter.
Three follow-up sessions are included in the retreat package to ensure you are supported post your retreat experience. Commonly referred to as "integration", these sessions help you integrate the lessons from the retreat into your day to day life. You choose if and when you want to have these sessions.
The application processes exists to ensure that only people who can command and grant trust and respect are included. Each participant will be asked to sign an NDA, as do the facilitators. But you will only share what you feel like sharing. There is no truth serum where you start blurting out that you secretly wish to be a pirate. There is no alcohol on these retreats, and therefore no substances where you lose control of what you say and share. Share or don't share- it will be 100% up to you. But if you do share, you'll be in a trusted environment where you will not be judged for wearing your favourite pirate hat.
Yes- couples who do these retreats together report significantly improved communication and empathy for each other. However it is not uncommon for the non-entrepreneurial partner to be hesitant of the idea. To a normal person, it does sound a bit out there. The usual pattern is that the entrepreneur/investor does a retreat individually, and their partner may become curious after seeing the benefits.
A tax deductible invoice will be issued.
Yes, the facilitators are happy to talk to you if you wish. Yes there are prior participants that are happy to share their experiences.
