"My favourite quote: >Atlassian raised $60 million in one round not so long ago. The entire venture capital industry in Australia, as a whole, didn't even manage to raise enough in 2012 to fund that round. You may as well say there isn't a venture capital industry in Australia any more, because in 2013 Australian startups would have more luck hitting up Eddie Obeid than going to an Australian VC."
