The recent Australian federal budget announcement is a major boost for small businesses, the education sector, and startups. As CEO of Ticketless Parking, a NED at Jeddle, and an investor in innovative startups, I see great opportunities for strategic growth and innovation. With increased government investment in infrastructure, the parking industry is poised to embrace more efficient, technologically advanced solutions, advancing the mission of #ticketlessparking. Meanwhile, the increased support for education will empower companies like #jeddle to further integrate technology and learning, propelling us towards a future where innovation is at the core of education. This budget resonates deeply with my belief in the power of vision, strategy, and execution to drive growth. Let us leverage these developments to push boundaries, innovate, and build a resilient future. #FederalBudget #GrowthStrategy #Education #Innovation #StartupInvesting #ParkingIndustry #jeddAI

It is a good initiative but it is also well known how difficult to grow innovative businesses in Australia. $400M is great but the culture is not there. There is no right people. If I have lots of money I will invest in a Sydney house, run a skin care shop or milk bar, even a coffee truck. Can Sydney or Melbourne be San Francisco, Boston, Austin, Shenzhen, though we have many top universities? No, Australia parliament members also know it is better to buy a Sydney house rather than fund a start up with the latest innovations. It is because house can be sold to smart and rich new migrants, who are mostly successful middle age people coming to enjoy their fortune in Australian sunshines, not truly investing in new talented innovations. All money goes to fat home loans. Where is innovation or manufacturing coming from? Still China, probably. Exporting wines, lobsters, iron, barley to China will make Australia great again, yeah, by the way, there might be some innovations if government has more money, many $400M.

🎉 Exciting Announcement! 🎉 I am thrilled to share that I have been awarded Stage 2 of The Norman Esch Awards Intake 25 for my project EV-Mob! 🚀 The Norman Esch Awards, facilitated by the Centre of Engineering Innovation and Entrepreneurship at Toronto Metropolitan University, provide invaluable support and resources to students in the Faculty of Engineering and Architectural Sciences to explore Entrepreneurial Ventures. Despite being away on vacation during the announcement, the recognition and support from the Esch Awards and the opportunity to incubate at Innovation Boost Zone are instrumental in advancing my business idea within the vibrant Toronto startup ecosystem. This achievement marks a significant milestone in our journey towards revolutionizing urban electric vehicle charging with EV-Mob. Despite the brief gap between Stage 2 and Stage 3, we have remained dedicated to advancing our Innovative Business Model with EV-Mob and I am eager to share the Strategic Pivot we've been working on in subsequent updates, which promises to Elevate EV-Mob to new heights of success. The experience gained through thorough market research during this stage has been invaluable.
