Fostering innovation in the Pacific – Seedstars, the GSMA and the Australian Government

Seedstars, in partnership with the GSMA, supported by the Australian Government, ran three events in the Asia Pacific region. These were aimed at fostering innovation by bringing start-ups from Papua New Guinea, Fiji and Samoa together, for some tailored training, support and to enable them to enter pitch competitions. The winner of each went through to the regional summit to compete there with various others in the ecosystem. We documented the journey of these start-ups, from local to regional and their experiences along the way.
