Top Aussie tech writer Brad Howarth has a good story up on leading tech news/funding blog Venture Beat about the recent Austrade and AIMIA backed mission to NY by 7 mobile startups.

Here’s a sample from the story, which you can read in full at VentureBeat - HERE

So last week a group of seven Australian mobile technology companies — games developers and other assorted digital media technology companies — descended on Manhattan to present their wares to a group of ad agency executives and publishers, courtesy of the Australian Trade Commission and the Australian Interactive Media Industry Association.

NY is still the home of Advertising in the US, so it’s great to see a bunch of boot-strapped Aussie startups heading to the East Coast where they believe their customers are, as opposed to the West Coast where the investors are. (kind of odd, from that perspective, that the story is up on Venture Beat…)

Nice work in any case by Brad - getting a story about Aussie Startups into a leading tech blog. And nice job by Austrade and AIMIA in helping the startups get to NY. Should be interesting to see what comes out of the trip.
