FIXE at Lot Fourteen will help position South Australia as a world leader for start-ups, and was officially launched yesterday.
Lot Fourteen, being developed on the seven hectare site of the former Royal Adelaide Hospital, is an innovation neighbourhood where thousands will work and stay when it is fully established in the next five years. With a strong focus on deep technology sectors, Lot Fourteen is the ideal home for FIXE, which will offer up to 650 work spaces to entrepreneurs and start-ups across multiple buildings.
A newly established Entrepreneurship Advisory Board would help curate FIXE@Lot Fourteen. Members of the board include:
- Co-Founder and Director Suntrix Solar, Jenny Paradiso

- Co-Founder and Chief Technology Officer of Dtex Systems, Mohan Koo
- Managing Director of Jumpgate Virtual Reality, Anton Andreacchio

FIXE@Lot Fourteen will be an environment where:
- new entrepreneurs are encouraged and supported to develop their ideas

- investors can readily identify opportunities to back emerging and growing businesses
- successful entrepreneurs can mentor and guide future entrepreneurs.
