On this week's episode Simon grabs an Uber to go on location to This Is Coworking in Geelong. This Is Coworking is an event put together by friends of the show StartupCloud and Mirrors PR & Events to promote the benefits of working in a shared environment.

Geelong has many professionals who may needlessly travel to Melbourne each day or work from home. Coworking offers a way for individuals and small teams to come together in a shared location and form a supportive community.

Also on this week's show Craig reviews the hottest startups of 2014 according to Forbes magazine. Discussed are big names such as Uber (number 3, with another 1.2bn raised in December). Uber competitors Lyft and Relay Rides come in at number 7 and 14 respectively.

AirBnB comes in at number 15 - lots of people in Torquay rent out their homes or rooms in their homes through AirBnB especially in the summertime.

Crowdfunding platform Indiegogo is a company of note, as is file sharing company Dropbox. Listen in next week to hear more about Indiegogo and crowdfunding as we have a special guest on the show who is about to launch a very interesting crowdfunding campaign.

Number one on the list is Zenefits, a cloud based human resources company. Zenefits enables US based small businesses to purchase health insurance through their platform and is facing regulatory challenges.
