The Impact of Networking on Perth’s Startup Ecosystem: A Statistical Insight
Business networking plays a crucial role in the success of startups within Perth's growing entrepreneurial ecosystem. Whether it’s securing funding, attracting skilled talent, or establishing strategic partnerships, networking is increasingly becoming a vital component for startup growth. In this article, we will examine the importance of business networking in Perth and provide a statistical analysis of its influence on the city’s startup landscape.

Networking as a Gateway to Investment
Raising capital is one of the primary challenges for any new business. In Perth, business networking has emerged as a key enabler for securing early-stage funding. A survey conducted by StartupWA revealed that 40% of local startups obtained their initial investments through connections made at networking events. Moreover, startups that actively engaged in networking activities were found to have a 25% higher likelihood of successfully closing funding rounds compared to those that did not prioritise networking.
Investor-focused events and forums in Perth, such as Perth Angels’ pitch nights, serve as prime venues for startups to meet venture capitalists and angel investors. According to Perth Angels, their networking efforts have contributed to over $12 million in funding for emerging businesses. This showcases the importance of networking for startups seeking financial support.
Attracting Talent through Networking
Finding and retaining the right talent is critical for startup success. Business networking events in Perth provide an effective platform for connecting with potential employees, co-founders, and partners who can bring essential skills to the business. Data from LinkedIn's Perth Startup Ecosystem report suggests that 30% of startups in the city have recruited key talent through networking events.
Furthermore, businesses that participate in networking activities at coworking spaces like Spacecubed and FLUX report a 20% faster hiring process compared to companies relying solely on traditional recruitment methods. These spaces not only foster collaboration but also create opportunities for startups to meet professionals from various fields, which often leads to valuable hires.
Building Partnerships through Networking
In the fast-paced startup world, establishing strong partnerships can accelerate growth. A survey by Techboard found that 35% of startups in Perth developed important business partnerships through networking events. Local events such as Perth Startups Meetup and West Tech Assemblage serve as essential hubs for forging relationships with larger companies, universities, and other key stakeholders.
Collaborations between startups and established corporations are also on the rise, with 60% of partnerships within the Perth startup ecosystem emerging from networking opportunities, as reported by Startup Muster. These alliances often lead to joint ventures and resource-sharing arrangements that benefit both parties and support the growth of new businesses.
Networking Driving Growth in Perth’s Startup Scene
Business networking has become a cornerstone of Perth’s growing startup ecosystem. The 2023 Perth Startup Ecosystem Report highlights that half of the startups in the region engage in regular networking activities. This active participation has contributed to a 30% increase in the number of new startups since 2020, underlining the significant role networking plays in driving entrepreneurial activity.
In addition, incubators and accelerator programs in Perth, such as Plus Eight and RAC SeedSpark, place great emphasis on networking. More than 80% of program participants noted that networking was a major contributor to their overall success. These programs regularly invite industry leaders and potential investors, creating valuable connections for startups looking to scale their operations.
Conclusion
Business networking in Perth is instrumental in helping startups secure funding, attract talent, and build strategic partnerships. By leveraging networking opportunities, startups can access critical resources and make the connections necessary for long-term growth. As Perth’s entrepreneurial ecosystem continues to evolve, networking will remain a key factor in helping startups navigate challenges and achieve success in the competitive business landscape.

FROKAN x UIT #1
DeNA主催の「FROKAN」と LINE 株式会社主催の「UIT」の共同で「FROKAN x UIT #1」を開催しました。いつものFROKANのイベント同様にテックボードを作りイベントでアンケートとして使っていただきました。

フロントエンドエンジニアはかなりスキルセットが多様化していることを予想してたくさんのキャラを描きました。結果としてはデザインやバックエンドをフロントエンドに加えてスキルセットとして持っている参加者さんが多かったです。
当日のツイッターでもテックボードを参加者のみなさんに活用してもらえて嬉しかったです。

Donna asking what we've all been wondering... Angel, girl, what are you doing???
I think this is the first mention of CORNELLO within the dialogue. I guess based on Angel's answer alone you can make out that CORNELLO is some sort of organization occupied with promoting human progress. Add some basic sci-fi literacy to the mix and readers may conclude that we are dealing with a BIG OMINOUS ORGANIZATION RULES THE WORLD-trope. I'd say I'm being somewhat orignal with my take on it though, but I am a little biased.
We will see CORNELLO mentioned in the second part of the chapter as well, which will hopefully help readers paint a better picture of its scope and (spoiler: ambiguous) moral alignment.
Angel is putting the ARCO Motherboard away in her epic shoulder bag. Let's hope she's using some sort of micro fiber cloth that doesn't scratch exposed techboards!
I'm sure all of this is just a big misunderstanding that could be easily solved by simply letting Donna have her say 😌

After Andee designed the first iteration of our prototype, I (Fatima) started to work on building some of the features we’d identified. As I worked, I placed all the features in triage on the window in the main room. I did this because I wanted my team to know the status of certain features - in both priority and completion or non-completion - kind of like a live JIRA board :) This also helped me recognize certain features that were taking too long to implement or that were too tricky so I could flag them early. Since our sprint was only a week long, prioritization was key. After the first prototype went live and into user testing, Andee updated the design. In turn, we updated the feature-set together and re-prioritized the triage board. It was super useful to walk through the features with my team for each iteration of the prototype so that we were on the same page in terms of what was most important - and so that they were aware if something was trickier to implement.

Frontend de KANPAI! #7 -Going on 令和-
所属会社DeNAが主催のフロントエンドエンジニア交流イベント用にテックボードを描きました。毎回参加者の方も初対面の方同士が多いのでこのようにシールをワイワイ貼ってもらいながら他の参加者さんとの共通項を見つけてコミュニケーションを取ってもらうことが狙いです。

DeNAに所属するタイプスクリプトの神様の(個人の見解です)@takepepeさんの著書も早速購入された方がいることもシールから判明して嬉しいです。そんな著書はこちら→「実践TypeScript」
