Wanted: Entrepreneur-in-Residence at muru-D Posted at 0:00, Mon, 11 April 2016 in Company Updates

Since 2013, muru-D has achieved a lot. With 44 companies in the portfolio, a base in three cities (Sydney, Brisbane, Singapore) and having $4m capital raised by companies and more than that generated, it’s hard to imagine the local startup ecosystem without it.

Dubbed ‘the godfather of Australia’s startup ecosystem”, Liubinskas has been muru-D’s Entrepreneur-in-Residence since the beginning. After 30-odd trips to the States, Liubinskas is moving to Silicon Valley to create stronger networks, to challenge himself and to support Australian fast growth tech companies with global ambitions.

He’s certainly leaving some big shoes to fill.

We’re so pleased to have worked closely with Mick for several years, and we look forward to following his journey in the Valley. With MitchelLake’s offices in SFO we’re sure he’ll never be too far away.

It brings us to an exciting time and opportunity here in Australia. MitchelLake will be looking to find someone to help mentor and be an integral part of scaling the next generation of Australian startup success stories. In Mick’s own words “if you’ve run a few startups, got some global experience and love coaching entrepreneurs” then we want to talk to you.

In this phenomenal role, you’ll steer muru-D’s mandate to grow the ecosystem.

Is this you?
If you think you have what it takes, or know someone that does, please get in touch with
