Encouraging tech startups will create more jobs, boost Sydney’s economy and strengthen global connections. It will also make our city a more desirable place to live, work and visit.
Our tech startups action plan details how we will work with industry and government partners to create an environment that enables technology entrepreneurs to start and grow successful global businesses.
Sydney’s tech startup ecosystem is in its early stages of development and its needs are very different from those of small businesses. Entrepreneurs and tech startup companies need a local environment that provides support networks, business and entrepreneurship education, infrastructure and financing opportunities.
Our action plan focuses on creating an ecosystem that enables knowledge-based, innovation-driven businesses to flourish. To support the tech startup ecosystem in Sydney, we will focus our activities on 5 main areas:
Research, Strategy and Corporate Planning Unit
Business support & funding
Supporting entrepreneursTalks, courses & workshops
Visiting entrepreneur programTalks, courses & workshops
Business seminarsEnvironmental support & funding
