About
I’m the Co-Founder and Co-CEO of Atlassian, a SaaS software provider, unleashing the potential of over 300,000 customers around the world.
I’m a huge believer in technology as the future of Australia’s economy and I spend my time helping grow the ecosystem and ensuring other entrepreneurs thrive. I invest in exceptional entrepreneurs and world-class teams through Skip Capital, particularly in technology and infrastructure.
I have a deep belief in our ability to change the world for the better and I’m the Co-Founder of the Pledge 1% philanthropic movement where companies commit 1% of their time, equity, product and profit to charity. I take big bets on people and organisations who approach really hard problems in completely new ways through Skip Foundation.
I’m also a husband, dad, adventurer, and passionate cyclist.
