This is the slide deck for the "Why Austin?" presentation by Joshua Baer of Capital Factory for his Eisenhower Fellowship to Ireland in September 2015. Austin is on fire – and it’s not just the summer heat. Austin is the fastest growing metro in the country and the Kauffman Foundation just rated it the #1 startup metro in the U.S. Successful entrepreneurs are moving here from Silicon Valley and around the world to start new companies. Apple, Amazon, Athena Healthcare, Atlassian, BigCommerce, Box, Dropbox, Facebook and Google are all expanding here – bringing talent with them and bringing critical experience to the talent that we already have here. Find out how Austin became a Tech Hub and what is unique about it's success.

Chinaccelerator, in cooperation with Tech Temple and GWC, once again hosted their program-annual 10X10 Beijing on March 8th, 2014. The Geeks on a Train tour takes the Chinaccelerator startups on a ride from Shanghai to Beijing, then back down to Hangzhou before returning to Shanghai. As part of the tour, the 10x10 conference brings attendees 10 tech pioneers (in this case we had 12!) and top VC's from the startup ecosystem in China. This is an amazing opportunity for attendees to have a peek at the first startup accelerator program in China, meet interesting people and listen to amazing speakers. As always, each of them takes attendees on a 10-minute tour of their own startup trials and tribulations, wins and losses, then give some great advice and maybe a secret or two about what they learned to help make them the superstars they are today. These are their slides, we hope you enjoy them. Thank you for supporting Chinaccelerator and entrepreneurship worldwide.

Industries worldwide are being disrupted by technologies evolving at an exponential rate. This poses a severe threat to established companies unable to adjust quickly enough. It also represents a challenge to conventional thinking about strategy and long-term value creation. This presentation discusses the waves of disruptive change coming at enterprises and IT organizations across industries, how to prepare and leverage these waves for competitive advantage, and how to avoid being left behind as the wave passes and leaves the slow movers in its wake.

I launched Austin VOP (Voice of Product) to learn from product leaders in Austin and bring these expert insights to the broader Austin product community. I have 5 lessons to share from 15 Austin product leaders. Product managers are linchpins in the success of tech companies. Through these interviews and articles on austinvop.com, I hope to encourage collaboration and learning. My thesis is, that by making the product community stronger, we can help make our technology company ecosystem in Austin thrive.

Lamentations over the predicament of our country’s manufacturing industry have dominated headlines over the past year. There is, however, a light behind the storm clouds. As Dr Glenn Stevens, the Governor of the Reserve Bank of Australia, pointed out, ‘Even as industries are shrinking, new industries can grow up’. This report – "Product Innovation in a hyper connected world: The Australian Maker Movement” – takes a different, more radical outlook. Our view is that the future of Australian manufacturing is fundamentally shifting, and could lie with our emerging ‘maker movement’. Australia finds itself at a disadvantage for labour- intensive, low-skilled manufacturing however, technologically voracious and interconnected Australians have collectively built a digital foundation for the vibrant maker movement. Business would be well advised to observe how the successful startups outlined in this report find ways to participate, learn, and shape the movement. Moreover, we urge Australians to take pride in the emerging movement, which showcases the good old Aussie ingenuity of making things happen.

Kono Team Story at 500Startups

YJ Min

It is foretold that by 2020 more than three-quarters of the S&P 500 companies will be comprised of businesses that are yet known to us. The term “software is eating the world” is thus aptly coined. This is an enterprise transformation story, sprinkled liberally with devops principles, illustrating one important cog in the wheel for improving an antiquated and inefficient old school practices. At the core lies the a modern tale about ChatOps, build pipelines and continuous integration and deployment. Under the hood, the approach is grounded with Jenkins, Docker, AWS Elastic Beanstalk. and Jenkins Job Builder. This toolchain enables our teams to ship fast. In addition, the build pipeline is templated, reusable, and testable. This significantly speed up the process of configuring complex Jenkins jobs and enable highly parameterised build pipelines. Ultimately, this translates to reliability and scalability that allows the team to better support the business units in a highly efficient manner. Enterprises are forced to operate as a software shop and this presentation aims to share the findings, lessons with some hands-on, and the macabre journey that is enterprise transformation.

Hiring remote employees across state lines offers exciting opportunities for companies to access top talent and drive business growth. However, it also presents unique challenges related to legal compliance, logistical considerations, cultural differences, and technology requirements. By proactively addressing these challenges and fostering a supportive remote work environment, employers can build strong, cohesive remote teams that thrive across geographical boundaries. As remote work continues to evolve, embracing a flexible and inclusive approach to hiring remote employees from different states will become increasingly essential for companies seeking to remain competitive in the global marketplace

Every business possesses data, from customer and transaction information to manufacturing and shipping statistics. The vital aspect is to figure out how to use it to enhance the business’s future. One compelling strategy for companies is to use predictive analytics. This includes combing through previous information to derive models and analyses that can help predict future outcomes. Predictive analytics applies to all facets of an organization. It can help determine what customers need and don’t need and help a business augment efficiency. It can help a company spot and deal with issues when they occur. What is Predictive Analytics? To be honest and straightforward, predictive analytics makes predictions about future outcomes by analyzing historical data together with data mining techniques, statistical modelling, and machine learning. As a part of advanced analytics, predictive analytics can help businesses discover patterns within data sets and identify risks, opportunities, and tendencies. It is associated with big data and data science. With huge volumes of data hovering across transactional databases, images, videos, sensors, log files, etc., we must embrace them to derive value. Here’s where data professionals employ deep learning and machine learning algorithms to analyze the data and drive predictions. These algorithms include neural networks, linear, and non-linear progression, decision trees, and support vector machines. Surprisingly, the insights acquired using predictive analytics can be further employed within prescriptive analytics to decide future action outcomes.
