Each year at Techboard’s Annual Celebration of the highest trending startups and tech companies, this year creatively entitled Techboard 2016, we also like to recognise an individual for their contribution to the Startup Ecosystem. We don’t pick the winner. That is down to you the community.
The Techboard WA Startup Community Award celebrates an outstanding contribution by an individual to the local entrepreneurship community. The objective of the award is to acknowledge and celebrate individuals who work to support and improve the WA startup ecosystem. Last year the award went to Greg Riebe (from Perth Angels / eGroup).
Techboard’s Panel of Experts has shortlisted the below four nominees for 2016. The award will now be decided by a public vote, out of the below finalists.
