A PLEA has gone out for government help to ensure the survival of small hospitality and tourism businesses. The Federation of Small Businesses (FSB) says more than three quarters of small firms in the sector have taken on debt since the pandemic began. It wants the government to introduce a tourism and hospitality strategy, led by a minister and focusing on “under-represented” small firms and their long-term survival. The federation’s report, A Menu For Recovery, also asks for a reduction in the red tape which it says holds back small firms from operating as takeaways and in outdoor spaces.

Aussie HR tech startup Pyn has raised $10.4 million in funding, led by ultra high-profile Silicon Valley VC firm Andreessen Horowitz, which is making its first investment in Australia.
Atlassian co-founder and co-chief Scott Farquhar also participated in the raise, along with BambooHR co-founder Ryan Sanders.
Pyn was founded back in 2019 by two bonafide veterans of the Aussie startup scene Jon Williams, one of the co-founders of Culture Amp, and Joris Luijke, former vice president at Atlassian and Squarespace.
In the same way platforms like Facebook make recommendations based on what they know about a user’s age, demographic and life stage, Pyn allows businesses to use what they know about employees to communicate more effectively.
