Australia’s number 1 startup podcast talks with Simon Anderson, CEO and founder of Notis (student engagement platform for schools) and Swayz (prompts friends and family to provide video content for you).
With Notis, established in 2013, Simon has raised US$1M over 10 years and is aiming to have a thousand US schools on board. Simon raised his first $5K thanks to Curtin Accelerate in Perth, then US$350K in an angel round, sold up everything in Australia, moved to Canada, while his kids were young. He’s now back in Perth.
Meanwhile, his social media engagement app Swayz launched a few months ago, and is his new startup baby.
