SUMMARY:Accelerating sports technology & innovation in WA
DESCRIPTION:This panel session explores the theme of accelerating sports technology innovation in Australia (and more specifically WA)\, with a focus on funding and support programs for startups. \nAustralia has developed one of the leading sports innovation ecosystems in the world – from world-class facilities and major sports events\, to leading sports science\, sports systems & pathway programs. Despite this\, Australia’s sportstech investment market has historically been immature\, meaning that capital raising and support for startups have been challenging and often opportunistic. However\, the landscape is changing. In the last few years the industry is starting to attract a pool of sophisticated investors\, there has been the emergence startup programs that better cater for the specific needs of the sportstech and health tech sectors\, and government is taking a greater lead on supporting local startup communities. \nIn the panel session we will hear insights from key stakeholders supporting the next-generation of innovators – from experienced early-stage investors\, startup program leads\, government\, researchers to founders that have raised investment. We will also explore the emergence of Western Australia’s early-stage investment funding landscape and hear from key stakeholders leading the local eco-system. \nPanel Members:\n* Derek Gerrard – Director at Purpose Ventures\n* Oliver Bazzanni – Mentor / Investor at Startmate & Program Designer at Australian Clinical Entrepreneur Program\n* Will Poot – Co-Founder at Omni Biotech\n* Sandra Draper – Manager Innovation\, Department of Jobs\, Tourism\, Science & Innovation at State Government of Western Australia \nModerator – Craig Hill – Co-Founder at Australian Sports Technologies Network & Advisor in ASTN Accelerator and ASTN-GSIC Pre-Accelerator Programs \n

SUMMARY:Scaling Your Company to the UK
DESCRIPTION:The UK is the 5th largest economy in the world and with the cultural synergies it’s a great market for WA startups to consider scaling to. \nHowever – while the language is the same\, some translation is needed to understand some of the nuances in the approach to UK business. Oury Clark have been helping Australian companies scale to the UK for over 10 years with everything from legal and tax structuring\, to accounting\, recruitment and HR. \nBased on this experience\, this session will give you a starting point to help make your UK market entry a success. \nOury Clark supported Spacecubed and Purpose Ventures on their recent Plus Eight trip to London and did an excellent session on this very topic. As the team are coming to Perth\, we thought it would be a great opportunity to run a similar session for those in the WA startup ecosystem.
