StartupAus chief executive Alex McCauley says Brisbane’s startup sector, which has lagged in previous years, has ‘rocketed ahead’ to become a leader in Australia’s small business and entrepreneur tech scene.
Data compiled by Startup Muster showed in 2017, Brisbane held 15.2 percent of startup offices nationally, second to Sydney with 39.4 percent - shifting Australia’s startup scene toward an international focus after such immense growth.
Mr McCauley says StartupAus has very strong targets in the UK and US to monopolise the industry and believes it would be a sensational achievement for Australia and a real driver of national prosperity.
