The CEO of Innovation Dojo Japan, Joshua Flannery, was interviewed by " DayOne.fm - Where the story begins", as part of a podcast and documentary that showcases key people and influencers within the Australian startup ecosystem including entrepreneurs, startup supporters, and other key Australian entrepreneurship organizations!
In his conversation with Adam, Josh discusses what he sees as some key differences between Australia and Japan’s startup ecosystems, as well as his time working as Director of the Sydney Startup Hub.
~Comments from Josh~
It is an honour to have been invited to be part of the History of the Australian Startup Ecosystem put together by the DayOne.fm - Where the story begins team!It was quite cathartic to revisit my accidental entry into tech startups and scaleups when joining StudyLink Connect in 2004, and since then working with so many wonderful colleagues and startup founders turned friends at UNSW, Sydney Startup Hub and Innovation Dojo before joining another amazing ecosystem with Innovation Dojo Japan. Listening to this definitely gives me time to appreciate all the great people and experiences I have had in and around startups these last 18 years or so!
