This week on Nightlife computers, Lars Rasmussen and Paul Wallbank join Tony Delroy to look at how you can take a great idea to the world.
Along with two friends, Lars and his brother Jens came up with the idea of mapping software. Having developed it in a suburban Sydney spare room the took it to Silicon Valley.
From there, the story gets really interesting and Lars describes the ups and downs of dealing with investors, Venture Capital firms and what happens when your business is bought by one of the biggest companies in the world.
From one success, Lars and Jens are now working on other product and they’ll give Nightlife listeners a sneak preview.
