StartCon 2016 Officially Launches: Bonfire of the Unicorns! Sold out six years running, Australia’s largest startup & growth conference is on November 26 and 27 at Randwick Racecourse.
Within one week of announcing the venue and date, StartCon 2016 pre-release tickets sold out completely. Now, the much-awaited conference is officially launching general ticket sales, along with a bold theme for this year’s event: Bonfire of the Unicorns.
Silicon Valley has a $585 billion dollar problem: the private company “unicorns” with valuations exceeding one billion dollars, are struggling to find exits. As a result, investors are pulling back on making investments in new companies. This compounded with the tumultuous time in the global stock markets, is creating a tougher environment for startups to get funding.
“How do you survive and thrive in the coming startup apocalypse?” is thus the theme of this year’s StartCon 2016 conference.
