Australian AgTech Startup Companies Database

The Brazilian Consulate-General in Sydney has identified Australia, with the same large scale farming practices as Brazil, as potentially having the answers to the growing global areas of concern in Agribusiness. These include issues in areas such as water (efficiency of use, cost and drought), sustainability (waste, chemical resistance, plateauing yields), consumer demand (product traceability, labelling, animal welfare), global (climate change, global competition, carbon sequestration) and on farm challenges (government regulation, soil erosion, pests). It has engaged Rounding Up to review the AgTech landscape in Australia to provide potential collaboration opportunities between Brazilian and Australian AgTech companies. [find out more]

World in a Box

A group of retired senior shipping executives had been discussing how to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the first international container services into Australia. They needed someone with connections who could project manage the funding and production of a short documentary together with its distribution.

You can read more on the background of the project here. Three different length versions of the documentary are available.

“Without your interest and dedication to this Project, it would never have happened, and would have remained in my head as a mere figment of my sometimes ‘fertile’ imagination. Thank you for producing such a professional and magnificent product, particularly when you realise that, prior to the making of the film, you had no detailed knowledge of the shipping industry.”

Martin Orchard, Chair, The 2019 Container Project Committee:
“Well done. You have done a great job organising this Project.”
Frank Needs, Member, The 2019 Container Project Committee
“I had a look at the film this afternoon. It’s fantastic! I like the way the narrator brings it all together, and the story-telling is very persuasive.”
Lachlan Crews, Assistant Secretary, Trade and Investment Advocacy Branch, Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade

I am so thankful for your enthusiasm towards this Project which has turned out beyond my wildest dreams! I am confident that the film will engender a good deal of interest.”
