July 14, 2017 10:13

Providing a home for the next-generation of media and arts-based tech entrepreneurs is the aim for accelerator The Studio which will be one of the first anchor tenants in the NSW Government’s Sydney Startup Hub.

Slated to open later this year, the Sydney Startup Hub was launched yesterday by state Premier Gladys Berejiklian. The Hub is located in the Wynyard Green building on York Street in Sydney’s Central Business District.

The Studio is aimed at startups working at the intersection of creativity, business and technology.

(The Studio is not just focused on content-based startups.) The “studios” of The Studio are there to enable and provide tools to startups.

Startups may for example be: focused on new business models, products and services, IOT or hardware; be little media + big tech, big media + little tech or media-first startups. Startups may come not from the media, entertainment, music, games or creative industries – but may come from (for example) fin-tech, edu-tech, health-tech but want to be located in the environment, culture and community of The Studio or have access to the “studios”.
