Aussie artificial intelligence company, MyCyberTwin, has spoken about its recent win at the New South Wales Australian Technology Showcase (ATS) Patron Awards.

Co-founder and chief innovation officer at the company, John Zakos, said MyCyberTwin’s $15,000 prize in the rising star award category would ensure future success at the business.

That’s cool! Would they add the $15.000 to the MyCybertwin Turing Test Challenge Cash Prizes ?

Thanks for posting this, we’re very proud to receive the NSW ATS Patrons Award!

I’ll also add last week our CEO and co-founder Liesl Capper-Beilby was presented with Honorary Membership of the Australian Computer Society!

Having been in Liesl’s position myself a few years ago, I can appreciate the difficulty of juggling business, technical, marketing and political agendas. Good luck negotiating the maze.

Look who’s coming to Sydney town!

“The Silicon Valley rock stars who made billions from companies like Facebook and PayPal are hoping their next big hit will come out of Australia. US venture capital firm The Founders Fund – headed by PayPal co-founder Peter Thiel and Facebook’s first president, Sean Parker – is sending three of its top executives to Australia in January to scout and meet with local tech startups, a source has revealed.”

Gentlemen, start your cheque books.
