Techboard’s top 100 for 2017

11/12/201726/02/2018 Peter van Bruchem

Over the course of 2017, Techboard has been tracking metrics on Australian Startups and publishing monthly rankings that rank companies on the extent to which the metrics indicate they are trending or gaining mindshare. For the Techboard 2017 Awards we compiled a special ranking which included all ranking scores for companies we had been tracking. For the National Awards we applied certain weightings to the scores in recognition that Techboard did not have a full years data on all companies it had been tracking. For the Western Australian Awards we did not apply any weightings due to having more complete data. We are now pleased to release the list of the top 100 trending companies for 2017 utilised for the National Awards.

Over the course of 2017, Techboard has been tracking metrics on Australian Startups and publishing monthly rankings that rank companies on the extent to which the metrics indicate they are trending or gaining mindshare. The Techboard 2017 National awards are a culmination of those monthly rankings and comprised two company categories, the highest trending company overall and the highest trending up and coming company. Techboard held the event at the Sheaf in Double Bay, Sydney, in conjunction with StartCon, Australia’s largest startup and growth conference with the backing of leading sponsors MYOB.

Techboard’s Community Awards – Your favourite Startup Icon needs your support.

27/11/201727/11/2017 Peter van Bruchem

Techboard’s annual Startup Community Award celebrates an outstanding contribution by an individual to their local entrepreneurship community. The objective of the award is to acknowledge and celebrate individuals who work to support and improve their local startup ecosystem.

While in the past we have held this as a Western Australian initiative, this year for the first time we have opened the award up nationally - in line with Techboard's national expansion in 2017.

We have asked the 70+ members of our Panel of Experts in each state to collectively nominated individuals in their own states they deem worthy of the award. From these nominations we have put together a shortlist of 12 very worthy candidates - and it is now over to you, for a public vote!
