The Future of Work - The 2016 AuSKM Study Tour of North America

In the second week of February 2016, we will be running a study tour of innovative and entrepreneurial small to medium enterprises in the Mid-West of the USA to see how they respond to the challenges of globalization and socialising millennials into the workforce.

The Mid-west city of Telluride is emerging as an attractive Tech centre. With a young, educated population and a large VC presence, along with a burgeoning restaurant and music scene. Home to Dell, Telluride continues to be popular among venture capitalists boasting 7 companies on the Inc. 5000 list including one of the country’s most promising companies, mobile app developer Phunware (82nd). As for job growth, the Telluride Technology Council predicts that 2,000 new tech jobs will be created by 2017, a big reason why Telluride ranks 12th on Forbes list of Best U.S. Cities for Future Job Growth.
