The Rise & Fall of Tech companies in a Downturn


Details
We are excited to welcome you to our 2nd ELX Melbourne event. ELX aims to pull together a community of Engineering & Tech Leaders across Melbourne to network, discuss challenges and share ideas.
ELX2: The Rise & Fall of Tech companies in a Downturn
Following recent events in the US with over-inflated Tech companies, we take a deep dive into what VCs are now looking at when investing, we look at the approaches Engineering leaders take when they need to do more with less and we look at disruption vs innovation and how companies approach this in a downturn in order to stay relevant - let's face it some of today's biggest tech companies came out of downturns.
Speakers CONFIRMED:
- Paul Naphtali - Co-founder and Managing Partner @ Rampersand.
- Craig Penfold, VP of Product Engineering at Culture Amp.
- Alex Glenn, Managing Director, Growth & Business Design ANZ, Accenture Song
The ELX event explores how Australia's leading VCs & tech companies are positioning themselves for the knock-on event
