ANZA Technology Network Partners with Leading Incubators in Sydney, Brisbane, Adelaide to Assess Commercialization Opportunities in New Markets
ANZA Technology Network and the Guidewire Group will be holding a series of Pitch Slam events at leading incubators in Sydney, Brisbane and Adelaide 25-30 May. Startups and early-stage companies seeking to assess their global readiness to commercialize in new markets like the US and China are encouraged to sign up to deliver a 5-minute pitch and get their G/SCORE.
The G/SCORE measures companies across seven key business factors designed to accurately and consistently assesses a company regardless of stage, market segment and geography. It identifies strengths and opportunities and allows companies to benchmark their business against thousands of others worldwide.
“The G/SCORE provides early-stage founders and CEOs with vital feedback that provides the focus and reinforcement they need to take their company to the next level,” said Chris Shipley, co-founder and CEO of the Guidewire Group and developer of the G/SCORE, who will personally score each company at this month’s Pitch Slam events.
Companies are charged $49 USD to participate and are asked to prepare a 5-minute pitch. Details about the events, which will be held at ATP Innovations in Sydney on 25 May, iLab in Brisbane on 26 May and Innovate SA in Adelaide on 30 May are available at www.anzatechnet.com. (Read more)
