Big four bank, ANZ, has invested $50 million into View Media Group (VMG) just six months after the group was formally established. VMG was founded by Antony Catalano and Alex Waislitz, of publishing business Australian Community Media (ACM), and was previously registered as IMP.

In August 2022, Seven West Media took equity in the company via its Seven West Ventures subsidiary. VMG is jointly owned by 20 Cashews, an entity which is jointly owned 50 per cent by Antony Catalano and 50 per cent by Alex Waislitz’s private Thorney Investment Group and the publicly-listed Thorney Opportunities.

Catalano and Waislitz have invested substantial capital into VMG and have committed significant media services through their ACM network of 140 mastheads across Australia.

VMG is a real estate digital media and agent services business comprising a suite of property tech platforms offering consumer and business solutions in Australia’s $300 billion real estate transactional market.
