It's been a week of wins for mildly problematic ride-sharing giant Uber, after Australia's workplace watchdog ruled drivers are considered contractors not employees. Those drivers, who might now be facing prospects of even less pay, will at least be able to expand their skills beyond just driving cars, with the company announcing Melbourne is next in line for its 'Elevate' flying car trials. But will those flying cars be enough to transform Australia's best capital city into a tech epicentre? According to one venture capitalist, we're already there. Better luck next time Sydney! And finally, it's David vs Grilliath in Sydney's northern suburbs, as a small butcher chain has been issued a cease and desist letter by national burger biz Grill'd over a sign which kind of, vaguely, maybe looks like its logo. |
