Today on StartupSmart, we take a closer look at a Silicon Valley catchcry that is beginning to take hold among Australian start-ups – “pivoting.”

We outline both sides of the argument, and provide some top tips on how you should go about changing your start-up’s direction, should you decide that pivoting is the best option for you.
