In 1994, before the terms "startup" or "bootstrapping" were in common use, Steve Baxter started a successful internet service provider, SE Net, from the spare room of his Adelaide home. Since then, Steve's wide ranging career has led him to play many roles as part of the Australian Startup Ecosystem, including playing key roles in the founding of River City Labs, Right Pedal Studios and StartupAUS, as well as featuring on the TV show Shark Tank. In his conversation with Adam, Steve touches on many of these, as well as discussing his ideas on what the Australian Government could be doing to be encouraging growth in the Startup ecosystem.
