| I was the Developer on Doshii (one of the companies listed in the article) for the first 2 years of it's life. > Where were you based? Near to the city or a suburb? In and around the city > How was the internet speed? It's still Australia. It's bad everywhere. > From where did you work? Co-working spaces / coffee shops? I worked mostly in offices because I work better in offices. Most of the time I worked in the bar of another company's office. Wrote on the windows with whiteboard pens. Moved to a co-working space much later on. > Is it easy get connected with VCs? I wasn't involved much in finding them but we had a few interested. When we were ready is wasn't hard to get in front of some. > Is it easy for someone moving from outside to blend in? Outside Australia? Outside Melbourne? Don't bother blending. You do you. > Are other founders are helpful to each other and share their experiences? It's a mixed bad. You meet a lot of great people who are very fun and interesting. As to be expected there are also a lot of jerks who think they're hot shit. Generally more good than bad. |
