Mumbrella360 video: the marketer’s guide to hooking up with tech start-ups
In the wrap-up of Mumbrella360 on June 7-9, 2016, we revisit highlights from the annual event.
In this session, some of Australia’s most successful tech start-ups discuss how they drove their business growth through innovation and what you should and shouldn’t do when partnering up with brands.
Led by Marc Cowper, founder of Recomazing and non executive director of Fishburners, the panel gives insight into the Australian start-up community, offering future trends within the Australian ecosystem. The session addresses some of the big questions and challenges for start-ups, like how to go about strategic partnerships, why advertising banners aren’t used, why it’s important to always think global, and why Australia is a fantastic testing ground for start-up companies.
