How to get more VC Investment into WA Companies ($10)
3 December @ 2:30 pm - 5:30 pm
Reported private funding to Western Australian startups and tech companies dropped 25% over the course of the last year while private funding nationally was on the increase, jumping from $946m in 17/18 to $2.27b in 18/19. While no everyone is in agreement that we have a problem in WA with private investment into startup and tech, what we are seeing is a lack of growth or vibrancy.
Techboard’s first WA Roundtable in December 2018 identified a major gap in WA was the availability of Venture Capital investment in the state. Our last WA Roundtable explored if WA needed a $100m VC fund. This Roundtable will be continuing the VC funding theme exploring the question of how we get more VC investment into WA companies.
