<div class="moz-cite-prefix">Its almost like the article was written
by someone not in IT. <br>
Most IT services now a days, particularly in the web hosting side
of things are becoming standard, and a commodity and everyone is
doing it. <br>
And we are starting to get the big overseas players coming into
Australia as well, which makes it hard to compete. <br>
Its funny actually because that article praises Amazon quite a
bit, but a lot of industry people have issues with AWS and the
business model. Due to the pricing. <br>
It will be interesting times ahead I reckon. <br>

<div dir="ltr">Uncomfortable with this article on the basis of
correlation not equalling causality. There are plenty of reasons
the ASX hasn't tracked the US markets lately. Absence of big
tech companies may be one of them. Suspect the fact we're in
what looks like the tail end of a long growth cycle has more to
do with it, esp as USA is coming into new growth cycle after
dipping far deeper than we did post-GFC.

I don't know that this article is totally accurate though,
as plenty of Australian providers have been investing in
growing their businesses.<br>
But a lot of investors won't invest in tech if their is no
innervation, and you have areas like the hosting industry
hear in Australia where a lot of the bigger players are
buying out competitors.<br>
Plus a lot of tech companies hear in Australia are privatly
owned, not publicly listed so its hard to find out whats
being invested in. A lot of Australian companies in the tech
space have global relationships and partnerships it is just
they don't have the scale of the likes of Google.<br>
You can't really compare Google with the rest of the
Australian tech industry for that reason as Google have a
lot of funds that they can invest into projects.<span
