Just reflected on 2023 which many would say was a quieter year in Tech deal making. Just reflected on our 2023 Deloitte Tech Fast 50 cohort with some highlights. This doesn't include the tremendous organic growth experienced by the companies. Pay.com.au, Activeport, Ofload, Mad Paws, Applied EV, Jayride, Explorate, Fivecast, Moneyme, Nexion - growth capital raisings Employement hero - monster $200+ raise Acusensus - IPO EVSE, Arinco - Private equity deals Trade sales - MF & Associates Camplify - Acquisitions Me&U - merger Probably missing a few as well. Not sure this exactly qualifies as a quite year. I remain extremely bullish on 24/25 for Tech in Australia. 🚀

"Gaining buy-in [on new technology] is critical to ensure that everyone is working toward the desired outcome. When stakeholders understand there is a defined need, a defined process and defined roles, they are able to become invested in sourcing and implementing a solution. When everyone understands the issues, objectives and ultimately the solution, you have a collaborative team working toward success."
