Are you looking for different ideas on how to grow your company?

Join us for this exclusive Workshop while Mark Ikauniks explores in depth with a small group how to take advantage of the fact that over sixty percent of the world’s population lives within two hours of Perth’s GMT Plus Eight-time zone.

The Expanding to Asia Boosted Series will meaningfully connect you to the South East Asian (SEA) opportunity on Australia's doorstep:

A population of 650 million people and growing at a rapid rate.
350 million people who are mobile first, mobile only internet users, resulting in significant economic development.

Startups and scaleups in the region have access to significant market potential with $7.6+ billion of venture capital funding being deployed in SEA todate. Resulting in 10+ unicorns (+$1B companies) in SEA with an additional 20 predicted in the next 5-10 years.
