Melbourne's Startup Ecosystem Reimagined 💎🦄
Alrighty folks, I've been seeing a whole lotta talk about what it would look like to reimagine Melbourne's startup ecosystem. The message is CLEAR.
We want movement, and we want INNOVATION.
ONE TEENY, TINY, SMALL PROBLEM...
Oops, Australia did it again. There will never be true innovation if we only interact and partner with the same people over and over again. And that includes who we invite into these conversations :)
SO, the solution is clear. Real change & growth of an ecosystem comes from perspectives that come from OUTSIDE the current stage/phase.
We don’t need more of the same.
The same events with the same partners.
The same sponsors.
The same "thought leaders".
We need insight from minds UNLIKE our own. The catch here is that we must challenge our current ideas in order to birth something bigger, better and even more beautiful.
Collaboration and crossover are great, but only if they are actually real and different.
So let's switch it up.
New voices, new ideas.
This event will be all about getting everyone's voices heard. NOT just the ones who are obnoxiously loud.
Welcome to Melbourne's REAL underground startup ecosystem.
Come if:
You'd like a seat at the table.
You have some big ideas & even better implementation plans.
You value & respect other people's voices/opinions.
You have unique perspectives & are not afraid to challenge the status Quo (like, actually).
Any of this resonates, and you'd like to be in the room to soak it all in!
Even better if you have experienced Melbourne's startup ecosystem AND others across the world!
What to expect:
The event will be split into 2 parts:
Part One: Brainstorm (30 mins)
Group presentation by yours truley! Interactive workshop vibes... where we discuss some of the main key issues Victoria is facing and seek to reimagine melbournes startup ecosystem.
