The Atlassian Story: The Rise of the Tech Bros & the Ultimate Broken Partnership

View descriptionShare
 

Two journalists from The Australian spent years digging into the real story behind tech giant Atlassian, and turned it into a book.

It traces how two UNSW graduates built a global software company from a Glebe share house into a NASDAQ listed giant worth more than $100 billion at its peak. Along the way, Mike Cannon-Brookes and Scott Farquhar became best men at each other's weddings and eventually bought mansions next door to each other in Point Piper.

But the book also uncovers how internal tensions, diverging lifestyles and a neighbourhood renovation dispute ultimately drove a wedge between them, turning one of Australia's greatest business partnerships into one of its most quietly broken.
