Techstars: Finding the next big thing

摘要

ALL will be graduates of the first Techstars Accelerator program in the Asia Pacific, a 13-week Adelaide based mentoring and teaching program designed to take entrepreneurs from start up to Initial Public Offering (IPO). Chosen from hundreds of applicants, the 10 Adelaide Techstars companies were all selected as proposing ideas or products with possible defence applications, including a US firm developing 3D printed lightweight rocket motors, an Indian company with a laser wall intrusion detection system and NZ's Dotterell, focusing on noise reduction for drones.
