On June 6th the Web 2.0 in Australia event takes place.  The driving force behind it is Ross Dawson, and I applaud him for the focus and energy he has put into making this event happen.

Unfortunately I am not going to be able to attend. Going to be back in the US meeting with VC's once again....  (Silvia Pfeiffer will probably be there from Vquence and either Karl Rodrigues or Robyn Gilbey from OneMinuteWorld).

One thing I learned from previous incarnations in various businesses about doing business in America, is that if you keep going there long enough, you build relationships and those relationships turn into deals. And the deals turn into profit for everyone. It is just a matter of staying on track....

Speaking at the Web 2.0 event will be Randall Leeb-du Toit who is the CEO of Yoick. (Very talented guy who deserves to do well with his company), Allan Aaron (great guy and one of the founding partners of TVP. And TVP has a tremendous history in picking winners from Australia), Brad Howarth (also a great guy - and a journalist who is very knowledgeable about tech), and a bunch of other people. Should by a great day.
