What a week we've just had! Thank you to everyone for a wonderful two days at the Sydney Startup Hub where the ATC19 Growth Masterclass took place.
The Masterclass consisted of two jam-packed days of panel discussions, networking, collaboration, business insights, learning, sharing and more.
On behalf of the Australian Technologies Competition, I wish to extend a special thanks to our 40+ panel guests alongside our Chairs, Judges, Mentors, sponsors, and above all - this year's Semi Finalists - who are the reason we come together.
To view the full library of images over 25-26 July at the Sydney Startup Hub, please click here.
So what happens now?
Our Semi Finalists will take all they have learnt over the Masterclass and get started on their Concise Business Plans. These will be submitted for Judging as Round 2 of the Competition. Our esteemed panel of 14 Judges will review these in detail to determine which of the 33 Semi Finalists will proceed to the Finals.
From here, we're heading south to Melbourne, Victoria. Thanks to our gracious State sponsors and hosts: The Victorian State Government's Department of Jobs, Precincts and Regions and the Department of Environment, Land, Water and Planning, the Australian Technologies Competition national finals and awards ceremony will take place at the iconic Melbourne Cricket Ground in Victoria on Tuesday 29 October 2019. In the week leading up to this, two Partner Connect sessions will be held in Sydney and Melbourne for the benefit of our Finalists. Do take a look at our Key Dates and mark your diary!
Thank you again to everyone who has in some way or form, contributed to this year's program. We're delighted to facilitate the growth and success of Australian scale-ups.
Best regards,
Pat Mooney, ITV Chairman
(ATC Organiser)
