Great idea, we might be geographically close but most Australian’s have no idea how far our Asian neighbours are sprinting ahead of us (especially China), any program that will help close that gap is a great thing. Might be a good idea to include Hong Kong and Shenzhen on the program.

| Tell us about the market & founders, why is this a great opportunity? | In 2012, there were 4.3 billion people living in the Asia region, which is equal to 60 per cent of the global total of 7.1 billion people.Available venture capital in these markets is approximately 3-6 larger than that currently available in Australia. And finally, putting aside the size of the market, more pragmatically, there are a lot of problems in Asia which Australian innovation could help solve. |
