Episode Synopsis
Charlie Gunningham tells his story to the Tech Society podcast's Alex Dunmow and John Nguyen. Thanks to them for this cross-over episode, recorded earlier this year.
Charlie has had 20+ years experience in the WA startup scene, from founder through to exit himself with aussiehome.com, then reiwa.com, CEO of Business News, working for a federal government fund, doing deals, as angel investor, as mentor, adviser and writer.
He took over Startup News in 2018, launching the Startup West podcast the same year. Earlier this year, he helped launch a new Australia-wide property news site, The Property Tribune. He has lots of views on the local tech scene!
“… I think there’s definitely room for at least one more $25M fund that looks at early stage – doesn’t have to be zero revenue – but early stage scalable tech businesses in Perth “ ~ Charlie Gunningham.
