Money Milestones event

Ask any successful startup founder and they’ll tell you it didn’t happen overnight. It took countless hours, days, months, maybe even years to nail the idea, stick the landing, and hit crucial money milestones that make or break a business.

Startup Daily and SAP® Concur® are bringing you a panel with some of Australia’s most successful tech founders to see how they went from breaking even to breaking it big. Host Simon Thomsen will be joined by Mike Smith, founder of Zero Co, Saskia Albers, COO and co-founder of Unhedged, and Julie Stevanja, co-founder of Her Black Book.
