Territory Q July Edition Now LiveFeaturing Go Locum, Esper Satellites, Croc Pitch and CodeUp NT
The July edition of Territory Q has officially landed — and it’s another strong showing for innovation in the Territory.
On the cover is Phoebe Bardsley, founder of Go Locum, sharing her journey from idea to implementation. Phoebe began her Start NT journey at the Darwin Innovation Hub, which ultimately led to seed funding from the Paspalis Innovation Investment Fund, co-invested with the Northern Territory Government’s Local Jobs Fund. Go Locum is now reshaping how doctors access and manage locum work, addressing one of the country’s most urgent healthcare challenges.
