Creating win-win-win Ventures for Founders, Investors and Advisors

Building High Growth Ventures single-handedly is unquestionably very difficult, but today we examine an approach which will make the process considerably easier.

In previous presentations we have heard from Founders who have succeeded through bootstrapping or (the opposite extreme) listing on the ASX. While these approaches are technically possible and viewed as a bit of a hero’s journey/ badge of honour… if there was a better way, surely we should take it!

Startups require the involvement of founders, investors and advisors to succeed. In this session we will look at a model of engagement that works for all involved on the road to commercialising innovative products & services.

We will also learn about what our friends in the UK and US are doing that we need to embrace, if we wish to replicate the higher success rates they enjoy.

We’ll also take an honest look at our isolation & cultural/economic limitations as a startup outpost and see what can be done to overcome these structural disadvantages.

Once we know what Perth’s / Australia’s innovation infrastructure challenges are, we can head them off at the pass.

We’ll also reflect on the benefits of being isolated from the Global Startup centres of excellence.
