Hi Avis,
Hi Avis,
My co-founder and I have similar issues.
We've been dealing with a very reputable Valley firm and the advice is
essentially:
1) Where will most of your revenue com from? You should probably be
there.
2) if you will seek investment, then the location of those investors
may
They do - as long as the terms of the previous investment don't
prevent it, it's not a problem. http://ycombinator.com/faq.html
PS - We're (http://trunk.ly) over here for YC as well, had our
interview yesterday and didn't get in. Look forward to catching up
with you about it when you're here

Congrats to Mike and Bernie, great to see another Aussie (and
Melbourne based) startup getting some good coverage in the US.
Cheers,
Tim

I don't think there's a big enough difference between Melbourne or
Sydney in the startup space to base a decision on that criteria - pick
the one you feel a better affinity with. Having come from neither and
lived in both, we chose Melbourne over Sydney for the lifestyle,
affordability and family

For those of you that aren't AFL fanatics (inconceivable I know) if
there is enough interest, we can hook up the NRL GF as well for

Hoping you can take the time to check it out and if you like what you

Thanks!

If it's a hobby start up, you don't even need an ABN:
You only need an ABN to collect GST. You don't need to bother with
GST unless:
If you carry on a business, you must register for GST if your GST
turnover is at, or above the GST turnover threshold, that is, it is
$75,000 or more ($150,000 or
I agree that an ABN would provide more confidence, just don't confuse
this with the need to have a product that consumers want.
You should be able to validate and sell the product to some initial
customers without even sinking any money into an ABN. Which then
makes it worth getting one.

Alex Dong and I are in Sydney next week for meetings with various

I had one of these with my previous employer and I'd been told that

The ACCC looks very dimly on restraint of trade.
Your bigger issue is IP (reasonable for them to say that you can't

My wife has a NL passport, was born in Australia to a Dutch father who

It's in interesting question, I agree with some others here though,
what you do should be motivated by your product and company, not to
exit.

I think this is a great idea, however it's likely to be hard to get
support for it in general given the typically xenophobic nature of the
average Aussie.
The problem with the two visas you've nominated is that they don't
