As an early-stage founder, I’ve been looking for a likeminded and passionate start-up community like Earlywork for a while. Being only a week in - I’ve already chatted to some incredible people, learned about the emerging Web3 era and had a media opportunity which ended up being published in the Sydney Morning Herald. Honestly can’t wait to be involved more and see where the Earlywork community takes me!

Earlywork community gave me opportunity to connect with like-minded people especially during covid when making new connections were extremely difficult. It seems that the world is small and from there, lots of mutual friends and interest allowed us to spark exciting projects together. Thanks Earlywork for opening up more opportunities!

The Earlywork community has been such a great way to meet new people! I’ve enjoyed not only the networking opportunities from Community events but it’s also been an awesome space to meet new friends that I probably wouldn’t have met otherwise! It’s been so cool being able to learn together, discuss/test ideas with each other and even have a fun hit.

Since I joined EW in 2021 - I've met incredibly thoughtful people (some which have evolved into strong bonds/friendships), been to rockstar events (Sahil + IndexCoop) and felt truly supported in every way by the community and founders. 11/10 would recommend.

Something i really like about Earlywork is how much you can learn from being part of the community since everyone’s always sharing what they create, what has caught their interest, and their experiences in their career. for anyone who’s in the early stages of their career or are still in uni, this is pretty important since you get to hear about different industries you may not hear about within a university environment where you’d probably be a bit more pigeonholed within the industries typically associated with your degree!

To me, the Earlywork community has signified a strong, close-knitted group of like-minded individuals with varying sets of interests and skills, who are sharing extremely relevant news, groups, job listings, and engaging in community conversations. It's allowed me to meet many new people who are interesting and have helped to support me in my journey.

I love the people in the Earlywork community. There are fellow founders, VC's, students and tech professionals. From everyone I've met, I've learnt something from them - it might be how to growth hack to 150k users, how to apply for a job, or how to raise money for your startup from investors themselves. Most of all, there's great banter and memes across the board

Earlywork is my favourite startup community filled with exceptional and passionate people. Here I am always learning, and I love to go down deep rabbit holes with folks in the technology and investing forums. Not only have the conversations on EW enhanced my perspectives on career and life, but I have also made lifelong friends

The best thing anyone can do in their early tech career is finding others equally as ambitious as them. Earlywork is the home for such people

The Earlywork community is a rich hub of knowledge, passion and camaraderie driven by a diverse group of young professionals interested in the tech and startup space in Australia. I've been able to find exciting job opportunities, learn about the product and tech space as well as keep up to date with news I wouldn't be able to keep up with on my own.

I’d say that the community is great for finding career, tech and life advice from young and likeminded people. I’ve found it super helpful for networking and generally understanding the tech/startup career landscape and trajectory for young people new to tech. It’s also great that a lot of people share their experiences and learnings so there’s a big sense of community which I’ve found encouraging when feeling a bit lost or uncertain about work/lifeI also love that everyone shares their work/projects - it’s like everyone’s a cheerleader for each other which is awesome.
