For someone who has raised more than $40 million from investors and has an outsourcing business model, you’d expect Matt Barrie to champion the need for entrepreneurs to collaborate with others.
However, when it comes to start-ups, the Freelancer.com CEO is adamant that it’s never been cheaper or easier to do it yourself.
Today, we chat to Barrie about how he turned an obscure Swedish website into a multi-million dollar business, as well as get his tips for start-ups hoping to follow in his path.
Elsewhere, we have the details of this morning’s launch of the iPhone4S, bring you the latest from the Tax Forum in Canberra and reveal the very exciting news of the upcoming arrival of the TechStars Network to Australian shores.
