John Allsopp discusses the startup ecosystem's evolution from a “community” to an “industry”

John Allsopp is an author, web developer and conference organiser who’s been working in Australia’s startup ecosystem for nearly three decades. In 2006 he co-founded Web Directions, a conference series for people creating tools for the internet, at a time when the field was still relatively new. In his conversation with Adam, he discusses the very first Web Directions conference, which he sees as being “like the Woodstock of the Australian web industry”, as well as his perspective that over the last few decades the Australian startup ecosystem has evolved from a small “community” into a fully established “industry”.See full show notes: https://w2d1.com/john-allsopp<br/><br/>This podcast uses the following third-party services for analysis: <br/><br/>Podsights - https://podsights.com/privacy
