Dear StartupSmart reader,
Assholes beware, you don’t have to be “win at all costs” to run a successful startup, according to Twitch founder and Y Combinator partner Justin Kan.

Australian company DigitalCC has given up the rights to the domain name bitcoin.com.aujust a few months after buying it for $US23,000 ($A27,000).

It took just 12 weeks for Victorian game studio Hipster Whale to develop Crossy Road, a free mobile game which is currently sitting at number one in the Australian iPad App Store.

Research released this week by the Diversity Council of Australia has found the stigma surrounding mental health is still prevalent in the workplace, despite many employers taking steps to tackle the issue head-on. What can startups do to help?

The first research project into refugee entrepreneurs has secured $20,000 in funding from the Australian Research Council.

Here's a look at the progress of households in first release NBN sitesacross urban, regional and rural Victoria.

Six of the young Queenslanders taking part in the Startup Catalyst mission to Silicon Valley have found themselves in the top three teams of San Francisco’s Startup Weekend.

Mozilla's choice of Yahoo! over Google is a case study for what to do if your biggest customer becomes a competitor.

A New South Wales startup is looking to improve the way businesses hire employees by allowing users to tap into their networks quickly and easily to fill a job vacancy.

Whether you’re well on the way to getting your business up and running or simply branding your current company, campaign or product, these awesome resources will offer some creative inspiration for your logo design and decisions.

Could you be marketing to the wrong person or leaving off a key influencer and costing your business sales?
