It’s an exciting day Down Under. The results are in, and The Next Web Australia has announced its 1st annual list of Australian Tech Startup winners.
ANZA Gateway participants Perkler (Gateway ’08) take home the “Break Out” award, while Atlassian, founded by ANZA member Mike Cannon-Brookes is voted “Most Likely to Change the World”.
It’s also exciting to see We Are Hunted and Posse, two companies we saw showcased at Tech23 last October, place 1st and 2nd, respectively, in the “Best New Startup” category.
Credit for these awards is due to The Next Web Australia editor Kim Heras for taking this on and establishing a much needed way to recognize the Australian tech startup industry. Let’s hope more folks around the world will take note of the exciting quality companies taking shape in Australia and their potential in the global marketplace.
