Meet the People Behind the Emu
Thanks for being part of our journey to build the future operating system for Aussie small businesses. We’ve loved sharing a glimpse of what we’re building - now we’d like to go a step further and bring you behind the scenes.
Who we are
Mike Nash, founder of Tall Emu : "After more than 20 years working with Australian small businesses, one thing was clear: accounting software wasn’t the problem, operations were. Businesses were drowning in spreadsheets, double-handling, and manual processes. I knew we could build something better."
That’s how Tall Emu began: a system designed to run the day-to-day of a business from sales to inventory to customer care.
Mike says "I don’t do this alone. I’m lucky to be surrounded by a small, experienced team that’s just as committed as I am."
