MYOB General Manager, Business Division, James Scollay says the forum is a great opportunity for dynamic start-ups to reach some of the industry’s most influential players. “Tech23 is a fantastic chance for innovative Australian businesses to demonstrate the potential of their business model and share their vision in one of the most supportive environments available. It’s also a great way for these up and coming innovators to hear from some of the best in the business, network with peers and share ideas,” he says. This year’s 23 presenters have been selected from more than 150 businesses. Each will be judged by a panel throughout the day, and awarded prizes across a range of categories, from ‘greatest potential’ to ‘disruption’ “The internet provides many transformative opportunities for small businesses, making them more productive, giving them the ability to reach more customers and allowing them to be more competitive,” “This award recognises the growth not just of the technology community, but also the wider SME sector, which is increasingly seeing significant performance benefits from online innovation.” MYOB continues to invest significantly in product and people.
