[AusNOG] Interesting article regarding lack of investment in Aussie Technology

[Chad Kelly]

Hi all Just noticed this on the SMH website.
http://www.smh.com.au/business/markets/apple-google-and-microsoft-explain-the-problem-with-australias-sharemarket-20150721-gih04a.html?&utm_source=social&utm_medium=facebook&utm_campaign=nc&eid=socialn%3Afac-14omn0013-optim-nnn%3Anonpaid-25062014-social_traffic-all-organicpost-nnn-smh-o&campaign_code=nocode&promote_channel=social_facebook
I don't know that this article is totally accurate though, as plenty of 
Australian providers have been investing in growing their businesses.
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.
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.
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.
