Startcon
StartCon (formerly SydStart) is the largest Australian startup and growth conference, expo and entrepreneur community, established in 2009. The StartCon community has been supported by Freelancer.com since 2011. Around 5,000 tech startup professionals, investors and ecosystem participants have already experienced StartCon events. Andrew Chen from Uber and NASA's Director of Advanced Explorations Systems, Jason Crusan, headlined the event in 2016. The StartCon conference, held November 26 & 27th in 2016 at Royal Randwick Racecourse, attracted over 3,000 attendees. The conference was designed to enrich Australia's technology and entrepreneurship sector by providing a forum for entrepreneurs and startups to learn from leading technology founders.
