The Startup Battlefield 200 cohort is a testament to the world’s rich geographic diversity, with startups from across APAC and Oceania taking center stage. While we may not have seen a startup from Antarctica yet, it’s only a matter of time before that happens. For now, let’s take a closer look at the countries that make up this vibrant region.
