Filled out the form. In summary:

I'm from Brisbane/Australia and I will be moving to the USA one way or other soon. The few trips I have made over there have really opened my eyes to the opportunities that exist that just are not here.

It's mainly about networking and social support. The old age saying of "it's not what you know, it's who you know" is still very valid. In Brisbane we just don't have any successful startups (at least that stayed in Brisbane) to provide advice/connections.

Plus it is awesome to be surrounded by awesome people doing awesome things, that's what I'm looking forward to most.
